AB 2226: Reusable grocery bags.
What AB 2226 does, verified April 24, 2026
This bill would repeal the existing law that prohibits stores from providing a precheckout bag to customers unless it is a compostable bag or a recycled paper bag. The existing law defines a precheckout bag as a bag designed to protect items during checkout or contain unwrapped food. The repeal would remove this restriction, allowing stores to provide any type of bag to customers before checkout.
