HB 3062 Missouri House · 2026 Regular Session

Repeals section 260.283 relating to paper or plastic bags for packaging items

HB 3062 repeals a law requiring businesses to provide paper or plastic bags for packaged items. It allows businesses to choose whether to offer paper or plastic bags for purchases, while prohibiting local governments from banning, taxing, or imposing fees on these bags. The bill also maintains consumers' right to use reusable bags for purchases. This changes current requirements that would have restricted bag options and local regulatory authority.
