A Texas state lawmaker out of Dallas/Ft. Worth is moving to put a ban on plastic bag bans.  State Representative Drew Springer has filed a bill that would make all plastic bag bans invalid in the state of Texas.  This coming recently after the Single Use Plastic Ban was put into place in Austin, TX.

Pro News 7 reports on the story:

A state lawmaker wants to put an end to Texas cities banning plastic bags. State Representative Drew Springer has filed a bill that would make all plastic bag bans invalid. The Republican says such bans advance a "misguided nanny-state agenda." Advocates say the ban reduces litter and helps the environment.

Funny, never heard of a "misguided nanny-state agenda", what does that even mean?  Well moving on, what do you think?

Personally, I can see where advocates of the ban are coming from!  This ban reduces litter and helps mother Earth so if there's a way to make it possible to use less of these plastic bags, why wouldn't we want to do that?  Am I crazy, aren't we trying to save the planet or something like that?

So what do you think?  I totally agree with the ban, but maybe you think it's ridiculous?
