On Environment: Ban single-use plastic bags

The California Plastic Bag Ban Veto Referendum, also known as Proposition 67, was on the November 8, 2016, ballot in California as a veto referendum. It was approved.

A "yes" vote supported upholding the contested legislation banning certain plastic bags that was enacted by the California State Legislature as Senate Bill 270.
A "no" vote opposed banning certain plastic bags and enacting Senate Bill 270.
The American Progressive Bag Alliance, an opponent of the measure, led the "No" campaign to repeal SB 270.
Yes on 67, a coalition of environmental groups, grocers, and others, led the "Yes" campaign to uphold SB 270.
Legislative outcome:
AB 32 passed Senate 22-15-3 on 8/29/14; State Sen. Alex Padilla voted YES; passed House 45-31-3 on 8/28/14; approved by Gov. Brown, 9/30/14
