April 1, 2025 | By Andria Ventura

Ban Minnesota's Ban on Plastic Bag Bans!

Ending the plastic bag preemption will protect Minnesota waters, keep thousands of toxic chemicals out of our environment, save taxpayer dollars, and restore local control and autonomy. Life in plastic - not fantastic. Act now!

Get microplastics out of personal care and cleaning products in California

Scientists are finding alarming amounts of microplastics in human organs, including the brain. AB 823 would ban microplastics in cosmetics and cleaning products so they don’t get into our bodies or rinse down the drain into water supplies. Tell your California legislators to support this bill!
