'BACK TO PLASTIC!': Trump to End Bans on Plastic Straws

President Donald Trump is about to sign an executive order lifting bans and restrictions on single-use plastic straws in several Democratic-run states. This move is a way for Trump to undo some of the foolish policies put in place by the Biden administration, who couldn't claim they care about the environment after the western terror attack on NordStream 2.
President Donald Trump has announced plans to sign an executive order ending bans and restrictions on single-use plastic straws in several Democratic-run states.

The impending executive order comes just months after the Biden administration announced plans to phase out single-use plastic in the federal government.

Woke states such as California and New York currently have laws in place limiting the use of single-use plastic straws in full-service restaurants, unless it is requested by the customer.

The move is being met with mixed reactions, with some environmentalists hailing it as a victory for the planet, while others are criticizing the move as a step backwards in the fight against climate change.

The move is being seen as a victory for the plastic industry, which has been under attack in recent years due to the growing awareness of the environmental impact of single-use plastics.

The move is being seen as a way for Trump to undo some of the stupid policies put in place by the Biden administration, who cannot claim they care about the environment after the western terror attack on NordStream 2.
