AB 1998 Urgent Update

The California landmark bill that will eliminate the distribution of approximately 19 billion plastic bags from the checkout lines has reached a critical phase and needs our help.

Take a moment to contact your senator (list and contact info below), call a friend and share this video with them. The opposition is pulling out all the stops to prevent the passage of this bill, lets win this one!
