We only get one planet, Save it for the next generation. Plastic bottles and shopping bags have caused enough damage in 30 years. Before that humans used paper bags and glass bottles.

I keep them in the car but sometimes do forget to take them into the store, when I do forget I just ask the clerks to put the items back into the basket and then bag them when I get to the car.

90% of the planet's ocean plastic pollution comes from 10 rivers: 8 in Asia and 2 in Africa. Banning the miniscule Oregon contribution of plastic bags and straws is absurd.

People bring dirty bags, I believe this isn't a good thing.

No and don't plan too! We have been saving the plastic bags for months and will continue to use them.

Can’t ever remember the reusable ones. It’s my one luxury. And our store gives paper bags most the time and I reuse all the bags.

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.
