Bottle Bill Uncorked

Finally!

Please add your name to the MassPirg petition and let's get an Expanded Bottle Bill in place.



From MassPirg:

On July 20, Beacon Hill will finally hold a hearing on updating the Bottle Bill.

At that hearing, I plan to demonstrate overwhelming support for increasing recycling by 1 billion bottles per year — the kind of support that will, after 14 years of waiting, convince state lawmakers to pass the Updated Bottle Bill.

I want to hand-deliver 10,000 signatures at the hearing, but to get there, I need your help. Can you help us reach 10,000 by adding your name?
We'll email your comment to your state representative, and I will also print it out (on recycled paper of course) and bring it with me to the July 20 hearing.

Each year, enough bottles to fill Fenway Park to the Monster seats end up as litter or trash that we could recycle if we expanded the Bottle Bill to include bottled water, sports drinks, iced teas and other new types of beverages not currently covered.

It's vitally important at this hearing to show the broad public support the Updated Bottle Bill has.

Add your name in favor of recycling another 1 billion bottles per year.

Thanks for all your support,


Janet S. Domenitz
MASSPIRG Executive Director

P.S. It’s a public hearing, and we’d love to see you there. Email me if you’d like to attend.
