DEMAND Texas Supreme Court impose a plastic bag ban.

    The Texas Supreme Court struck down the city of Laredo's plastic bag ban—a decision that will likely overturn similar bans in about a dozen other cities, including Austin, Fort Stockton and Port Aransas.
    The court ruled Friday, June 22, that only the state has the authority to regulate solid waste disposal in Texas. Chief Justice Nathan Hecht wrote that the Texas Constitution prohibits city ordinances from conflicting with state law.
    Contact your elected delegates – mayors, councilmen, legislators, senators to insist that the Texas Supreme Court impose a state wide ban of plastic bags.
