NY Plastic Bag Ban Postponed Again

A group of Instacart workers are organizing a strike across the U.S. starting Monday, March 30, 2020, to demand more pay and protection as they struggle to meet a surge in demand for grocery deliveries during the coronavirus pandemic. It was unclear how many of Instacart's shoppers - most of whom work as independent contractors - would join the strike. (AP Photo/Rogelio V. Solis, File)

NY has delayed the enforcement of its controversial plastic bag ban for the third time, and enforcement of the ban, which went into effect March 1, would now wait until June 15.

Enforcement of the ban was intended to begin April 1 but was extended to mid-April after New York business owners filed a lawsuit, claiming they didn’t have time to prepare for it.

  1. Reusable bags have been proven to help spread virus/bacteria. Famous last words “We only have one chance to save our planet”. Ironic how Hashem showed him exactly who is in charge, and that his ban would have actually CONTRIBUTED to the destruction wrought upon his city.
