Rep. Jack Lewis (D-Framingham) wants a 5 cent deposit on nip bottle to combat litter. (State of MA)
May 5, 2021 (Framingham)- Representative Jack Patrick Lewis (Framingham) recently co-filed H.3332, An Act promoting the proper disposal of miniatures, along with
Representative Jim Hawkins (Attleboro). The bipartisan bill cosponsored by seventeen colleagues would add a 5-cent deposit to miniature alcohol bottles in Massachusetts. The Green Up Ashland Day is always one of my favorite days of the year. During the clean-up, nips continued to be among the most common items discovered, despite being used far less than soda. This is because the proper disposal of nips is not incentivized in the same way in our laws, noted
