In this Aug. 12, 2014 file photo, a man carries plastic single-use bags past the State Capitol in Sacramento, Calif. Election officials said Monday, Feb. 23, 201 that a trade group had turned in enough signatures to qualify a referendum on California’s plastic bag ban law, suspending implementation of the nation’s first statewide ban until voters weigh in on the November 2016 ballot. In many cases, states have stepped in after city officials somewhere in the nation proposed local policies that business leaders didn’t like. Businesses have warned lawmakers that a potential patchwork of local regulations could be bad for the economy. (AP Photo/Rich Pedroncelli, File)
