I prefer to ban plastic bags but, I have seen the nasty, dirty, filthy, stained cloth bags many customers bring to the store for the cashiers to put groceries in. They are gross. Bring a clean bag.

Bad for creatures & environment. Usually you have to double bag items because the bag material is cheap, double whammy. Paper is friendly to all. It decays & goes back where it came from.

Let's keep the plastic trash island to a minimum, right?

Using the plastic bags is basically lazy. There are plenty of options out there if we would use them. Obviously, people are too lazy, also, to recycle properly.

do you know that 89% of the plastic trash found in the ocean is from Asia country's.. We do a really good job of dealing with our trash in a responsible way. Also we have learned to not littler.

Plastic bags are bad for the environment, and not great for hauling a lot of groceries. I prefer paper or reusable..

Too much plastic ends up in the oceans and rivers and wildlife is killed due to it. Less trash to use reusable bags. I have been using my own bags for years as CA charges you

People should not have to put up with annoying intrusive lights that inconsiderate neighbors install

ICE is a dangerous entity and their presence only inspires unnecessary violence in our communities. They have no place in our state, our country.
