Excerpt: “Despite the scientific evidence and their evident failures, states and municipalities throughout the country have adopted policies to discourage single-use plastics and promote the use of paper straws. The previous Administration mandated paper straws as a domestic policy priority. President Trump will use all levers available to him to restore common sense and end the use of paper straws. The Administration will adopt a government-wide approach to target paper straws through clear government communications, efficient government procurement, and the promotion of health and safety. Key agencies have developed and begun implementing policies to ensure that American consumers are not forced to use paper straws.”
