Support a Trash Free Maryland

This winter, the Maryland General Assembly will consider legislation to put a five-cent fee on single-use plastic and paper shopping bags. Like the bag fee in Washington, DC, proceeds of the fee will support restoration of impaired waterways in the state, including the Chesapeake Bay.

We have a goal of collecting 30,000 signatures. Can you help?

Contact your representatives and ask them to support this important environmental bill.
