Make sure that your state senator and assemblymember are in support of a reformed bottle bill.

Sample script:

"Hi, my name is [NAME]. I’m a constituent from [YOUR TOWN/CITY], calling to urge the Senator/Assemblymember to support the Bigger Better Bottle Bill, aka Senate Bill 5684/Assembly Bill 6543!

This bill is key to addressing New York’s solid waste crisis. It will reduce waste, protect environmental justice communities, support small business redemption centers, and offer a lifeline to the thousands of marginalized NY residents that earn their livelihoods redeeming bottles and cans.

I urge the Senator/Assemblymember to please support this much-needed bill.”
