Today! Take Action for a Trash Free Maryland

Plastic bags litter the banks of the Northwest Branch

The final hearing for the Community Cleanup and Greening Act [http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?et=1109514014328&s=6585&e=001KUyawE7RhWhwFExpM0z3aKna7-mpADjetoXnHz6kgczAxDR2AQfWulKUUFShAhc3O7y_3qudUG2lFExuGvABvYmV7rVFZ_BjddLkwoJFlQCjRX8VaAgkQYvle53vLuViKkJPuZCPGRR4QU45YwuAMg==]
is tomorrow. As we've seen in DC and Montgomery County, five cents is a powerful
 motivator to reduce our use of disposable bags -- and protect our river from litter.
AWS has been working hard in Annapolis to shore up support for the proposal -- but
legislators need to hear from you!
We need all our supporters, from Prince George's and Montgomery Counties and elsewhere
in the state, to call or email their representatives and urge their support. You
 can do that easily by clicking here. [http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?et=1109514014328&s=6585&e=001KUyawE7RhWiaDbvGnvDpNHjok3I-hQG79vuuMwrjZmQTKsAmf3ePUQTYDx8-UHs6-6CMr9_VLuLZ3KO3RnuFYPZFFwJ8xIlTrJh4QWurliYYb425aTiPtG6qdGOVDVyCeANDGijHyY4a-J4QNjOIoiUIJubfg6vn7xGQDbCYncMu7zTcp87UiQ==]
