Action Alert 🚨 Support HB 160 - local control of plastic containers

HB 160 is a bill to repeal HB407, a Montana law passed in 2021 that prohibits citizen initiatives and local governments from regulating unnecessary single-use plastics such as carryout bags and polystyrene cups. HB 160 supports local governments’ ability to regulate and to protect citizens from the harms of unnecessary single-use plastics.
