If it were actually comprehensive, they wouldn’t need to add “most” and “ever.” Those two words indicate that they’re patting themselves on the back for clearing a low bar.
“By 2032, it would require plastic producers to reduce the amount of plastic they make by 25 percent”
I’m looking at this less as a start and more like observing a house engulfed in flames and hearing that a fire truck is gonna bring a bit of water in the morning
It also fails to address some rather large specifics in regard to plastics and microplastics. Tire dust is a leading source of microplastics for example, and vehicles continue to get heavier, and mileage isn’t going down. It’s cool they’re doing something, but they’ve been making small incremental environmental changes for decades which led us to where we are today.
“Better than Republicans” is only an accomplishment if you think that it takes effort to be better than people who actively work at being bigoted turds all the time.

It’s a start, and much better than “recycle ur plastic bags, folks”
Then they should call it a start instead of insulting everyone by expecting them to buy this “most comprehensive evar” garbage.

A low bar is better than nothing. I don’t know if this bill is comprehensive or not, but it still is better than what Republican Party offers.
