Action on the BOTTLE BILL is needed now: Call your State Senator. This bill would save municipalities and taxpayers money by diverting more recyclable materials from municipal waste, create jobs, make redemption more convenient, and reduce litter.

HJ58 and HJ59 passed in the House of Representatives now the Senate needs to bring it up for a vote during this legislative session. If you have not been in touch with your state Senator recently, contact them and ask them to urge Senate leadership to bring these to resolutions to the floor for a vote.

Our legislators need to hear from us about HJ 58 – the No-Excuse Absentee Voting Resolution. Both houses need to pass it by 75% in order for us (CT voters) to have the opportunity to vote on it in 2022. So we need your help to to reach every single legislator! Last year, 650,000 Connecticut voters cast an absentee ballot in the 2020 election - but this expanded access is not permanent without your help. Contact your State Senator and Representative today and tell them what a YES vote means to you.

Action on the BOTTLE BILL is needed now.

Ask your legislators to vote "yes" and to cosponsor the bill if they haven't already.
