“By increasing transparency and encouraging manufacturers to prioritize repairability we can help families save money, reduce unnecessary electronic waste and build a more sustainable future.” — @LeroyComrie https://t.co/vsqlad67n6
PASSED! My bill with Senator @LeroyComrie requiring e-scooter rental companies to clearly warn users that riders under 18 are prohibited has passed both Houses.
Too many minors have been injured, too many pedestrians have been put at risk, and too many communities have been left to deal with the consequences. This bill puts companies on notice: public safety comes first.
A small step, but an important one. More to come!
