Plastic pollution is killing animals and poisoning us. We are more likely to get cancer and have our hormones disrupted by plastics and the chemicals used to treat plastics. Reducing plastic use, especially single-use plastics, will reduce the pollutants and reduce our dependency on oil. We need to use sustainable products and fuels. Cynthia Hull, Gallup NM
It’s killing our oceans and innocent animals, as well as polluting the entire planet! Pass the bill for a healthier lifestyle and planet! Barbara Swyden, Rio Rancho NM
The Break Free from Plastic Pollution bill would help reduce a tremendous amount of waste in the United States. With our climate changing drastically this is the first step among many that have to happen. We do not have the luxury to not take action. Our environment and lives are at stake and changing forever. We need to take responsibility as Human Beings to take care of our home, our Earth, our Planet. This bill would teach our local communities throughout our state and the country. Take responsibility in taking care of our environment. Chemen Ochoa, Santa Fe NM

It’s strangling our entire earthly ecosystem…. that means us folks! Keep dangerous residues out of my air and water. R.A.L. West, Taos NM
