17 GOP AGs sue California over single-use plastics law

Seventeen Republican attorneys general, led by Nebraska's Mike Hilgers, sued California over its Plastics Act, which mandates reducing single-use plastics and ensuring recyclable or compostable packaging by 2032. The lawsuit claims the law will increase consumer costs and violates the Commerce Clause by interfering with interstate commerce. California appointed the nonprofit Circular Action Alliance to help implement the law.
