Michigan Bans Banning Plastic Bags Because Plastic Bag Bans Are Bad For Business

Introduced by state Sen. Jim Stamas, a Republican, a magnitude preempts internal ordinances from “regulating a use, disposition, or sale of, prohibiting or restricting, or commanding any fee, charge, or taxation on certain containers,” including those done of plastics. It effectively kills a magnitude upheld in Washtenaw County, in southeastern Michigan, that would have imposed a 10-cent taxation on both cosmetic and paper grocery bags beginning in Apr 2017.
