'Back to plastic': Trump pushes for plastic straws as he declares paper ones 'don’t work'

Read Time:32 Second


President Donald Trump is moving to reverse a federal push away from plastic straws, declaring that paper straws “don’t work.” Trump signed an executive order Monday to review federal policies that restrict plastic straws. Trump has long railed against paper straws, and his 2019 reelection campaign sold Trump-branded reusable plastic straws. His move targets a Biden administration policy to phase out federal purchases of single-use plastics, including straws, by 2035. Several U.S. states and cities have banned plastic straws because they pollute oceans and waterways and harm marine life. Some restaurants no longer automatically give plastic straws to customers.
