The plastics industry is the 7th largest manufacturing industry in the U.S. & employs 1 million Americans. By supporting plastic production caps, the White House has turned its back on these hardworking Americans and the millions more who rely on plastics materials. https://brnw.ch/21wLTsG #Manufacturing #PeopleOfPlastics

The White House’s misguided reversal in support of plastic production caps is not only impractical but directly harmful to all U.S. manufacturers and will get us no closer to reaching our shared environmental goals. We are dedicated to keeping plastic waste out of the environment and believe we need to work together to achieve this. However, the White House’s drastic position change will not accomplish this goal, only set us back. Read our full statement: https://brnw.ch/21wLTb3
