SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) — In a story April 23, 2020, about an executive order by California Gov. Gavin Newsom on plastic bags, The Associated Press erroneously reported the executive order means Californians won’t be charged 10 cents per bag at grocery stores. The order eliminates the requirement that stores charge, but it doesn’t prohibit them from charging.
