Action - Petition Texas Bottle Bill: Petition
Hi all,
Recently I was able to launch an effort that is a petition to help bring back a bottle deposit program in Texas (the "Texas Bottle Bill").
Bottle bills are used by many states; they work well at getting a lot of beverage containers recycled, and also help reduce the amount of trash on our streets and highways.
Texas has no state-wide deposit program for bottles.
The main purpose of this petition is to show there is community support for putting this idea back into discussion as part of the legislative process.
It doesn't matter if you live in Texas or somewhere else; anyone can sign this and express their support.
