Right now, there aren't any bulbs banned. However, the ones that will be axed in the future are incandescent and mercury vapor bulbs.
This is for California, a very environment-friendly state:
AB 1109 Lighting Efficiency & Toxics Reduction Act
Signed into law by the Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger in 2007.

Yes, but this will become nationwide by the 2020's.
do you know of which bulbs are banned right now?
