Trash Reduction Act of 2013

Good morning chirping birds,

Please read this message from Ted Duboise, a good friend and publisher of the Plastic Bag Ban Report, which provides more relevant information regarding US Congressman, Jim Moran's cleverly worded Trash Reduction Act of 2013. 

Ted states:

I have more pertinent information on the Trash Reduction Act of 2013. As

you said, it is important to place a phone call to Rep. Moran, but it is

just as important to call the bill's co-sponsors AND the committees where

the bill is being considered.

 

First, for those who haven't read it, here is the original article:
