Soon, shoppers in Massachusetts and New Jersey may not have a choice.
Both states' legislatures have been moving closer to banning plastic bags in an effort to cut down plastic pollution. Eight states – California, Connecticut, Delaware, Hawaii, Maine, New York, Oregon and Vermont — already have approved bans on single-use plastic bags, according to the National Conference of State Legislatures.
Massachusetts and New Jersey are in financial distress along with Connecticut. Talk about priorities. People are leaving California and New York.
