I'm a mom who is tired of trashing her kid's future with plastic. It's time for Carl E. Heastie and Sen. Stewart-Cousins to bring the Packaging Reduction & Recycling Infrastructure Act to the floor for a vote.
It's a good bill. Let's get this done.

Great piece from Sari Fordham in syracuse.com urging the NYS Legislature to PASS the Packaging Reduction & Recycling Infrastructure Act ASAP this spring. Let's schedule a vote, Carl E. Heastie and Sen. Stewart-Cousins
The connection between #plastic & our health is clear: plastic poisons people. We need strong legislation that prioritizes PEOPLE—not profits—in the #PlasticsTreaty !
