There are 16,000 chemicals used in plastics. Of those, 26% are considered "of concern" (aka hazardous), 62.4% THAT WE HAVE NO SAFETY DATA ON(!), & the remaining 11.3% are not considered problematic. We need to get toxic chemicals out of plastic & stop making so much plastic. NOW!

The NY Packaging Reduction & Recycling Infrastructure Act (A5322b/S4246b) would ban 19 of the most toxic chemicals and substances currently used in packaging, including lead, PFAS, formaldehyde, phthalates, cadmium & bisphenols. But time is running out to pass it! Call today:

Let's cut packaging by 50% in New York and set a precedent for other states to follow. We're calling on the New York state legislature to be on the right side of history. Read the full The New York Times Hilary Howard story: shorturl.at/UEdNy

Joe Biden has been one of America’s most consequential presidents, as well as a dear friend and partner to me. Today, we’ve also been reminded – again – that he’s a patriot of the highest order. Here’s my full statement: barackobama.medium.com/my-statement-o…

“The sacred cause of this country is larger than any one of us.”   Joe Biden has stayed true to these words again and again over a lifetime of service to the American people. Thank you, President Donald J. Trump.
