Bottle bill bottled up

Claire Sullivan left a comment on "Talking Trash Tuesday, Sept. 21: Bottle Bill" --

The town of Middleborough recently joined the South Shore Recycling Cooperative, ssrcoop.info, which is actively advocating for passage of this important and seemingly no-brainer legislature. Let your legislators know that you want to see this happen! It has been held up in committee for 16 years.

I would encourage others to communicate with their legislators, which I have, but it might seem that "Leadership" has been too busy behind closed doors meeting with Gambling Lobbyists crafting a grossly flawed bill to conduct the People's Business.

Bottlers oppose this as well.

Adding a deposit to other containers would reduce the costs of municipal trash disposal and would incentivize others to pick up those discarded on the roadsides.

It's long past doing what's right for the environment and municipal budgets. Please consider asking candidates for election and re-election their position on this.
