SF Chron: Legislature Votes Down Plastic Bag Ban
For more on the local context of AB 1998, read my story on East Bay cities' efforts to enact plastic bag bans of their own. Most were waiting on this decision to proceed.

Plastic bags will remain in grocery stores and unloaded handguns can still be brought into Starbucks, but from now on shoppers might know what kind of animal fur was used in their new coat.
The Legislature failed to approve bans on single-use plastic bags and the open carrying of guns as the two-year legislative session came to a close Tuesday night.
