It's Time for Action on a WV Bottle Bill!

West Virginians use over 1 billion containers each year, the majority of which end up in landfills or along our highways. Eleven states have Bottle Bills and no statewide bill has ever been repealed. Oregon’s is the oldest and was enacted in 1971. Several states are working to expand their laws to include plastic water bottles. Please ask your legislators and Governor Manchin to support bottle bill legislation.
