With NYS Senator Pete Harckham, sponsor of the Packaging Reduction and Recycling Infrastructure Act for a hearing with the Joint Committee on Environmental Conservation. SB4246 requires a 50% packaging REDUCTION in 12 years.

@not_mahomes @Ariddle777 @CoachFParks @NFHSNetwork @Migliorino_Nick @tohara_o @NHS_AthDept @gonormantigers You don't have to have BEEN "in a police misconduct situation" yourself in order to support Blacks who suffer at the hands of police while doing things White people do without being brutalized. Taking a stand (or a knee) for social justice IS a very American thing to do.
