A Republican state senator wants Attorney General Mark Brnovich to investigate — and slap down — the city of Bisbee for what she claims is the decision to ignore a state law prohibiting local laws on plastic bags.
In a letter made public today, Gail Griffin of Hereford noted that lawmakers earlier this year reenacted a statute that specifically blocks any regulations, fees or deposits on bags, bottles, aluminum or other “auxiliary containers.” That law took effect this past Saturday.
