Tell Your Lawmaker: A Bottle Bill is Not the Answer
The proposed bottle bill and bottle bill+ legislation would be detrimental to Rhode Island families, businesses and employees who are struggling to afford the high cost of living in the state. We need to make it easier to live in the Ocean State, not more expensive.
Stand up against a costly bottle bill and support a better solution that improves recycling in the state WITHOUT higher costs.
Tell your lawmaker: say NO to proposed legislation, including a new bottle bill.
