Nebraska AG leads 17 GOP attorneys general suing California over single-use plastics law

Nebraska's Mike Hilgers is spearheading a legal challenge from 17 GOP attorneys general against California's new law mandating the reduction of single-use plastics. They argue that the state law oversteps its authority and unfairly burdens businesses. This lawsuit underscores a broader conflict between states pushing for environmental regulation and those defending business interests and autonomy. It's a significant moment as it could set a precedent for how federal and state laws intersect on environmental issues.
