California's Senate Bill 1053, effective January 1, 2026, bans all plastic carryout bags at grocery store checkouts, strengthening previous regulations. It requires stores to only provide recycled paper bags or reusable bags, aiming to significantly reduce plastic waste, protect the environment, and mitigate harm to wildlife.
