2. Our Letter To All House Representatives:

Support: Important Policies on Waste

I’m writing to urge you to advance the following policy priorities now:

​​

  • Senate Bill S.2833 (Senator Rausch): An Act To Reduce Plastics

  • Senate Bill S.2829 (Senator Barrett): An Act Upgrading the Grid and Protecting Ratepayers (aka “Climate Bill”)

​

These bills passed the Senate with overwhelmingly bi-partisan support (38-2) and is now up to the House.  I'm urging you to support these bills and call on the House leadership to move these bills forward and to the Governor's desk.

​

Specifically as a member of Reusable New England, I support elements of these two bills including:

  • Bill S.2833

    • A statewide policy that would “Skip The Stuff” by addressing waste from plastic straws and other food-service utensils.

      • Straws and plastic utensils would only be provided on demand by restaurants and food-service establishments.

    • Expand the ban on single-use plastic bags throughout the state.​

  • Bill S.2829​​

    • A measure that addresses plastic beverage containers would expand the deposit as well as the types of containers subject to the tax to include water bottles, sports drinks, juice bottles and other nondairy containers.

    • The bill would embrace deposits on wine bottles and even those omnipresent small ones, the nips.​
