Howard County, Maryland Council Meeting

February 18, 2025
6:30 pm
- 8:00 pm EST

Join us as we gather with coalition partners to show strong community backing for CB11-2025, a bill that would prohibit companies in PEC zones (industrial areas near residential neighborhoods) from engaging in experimental plastic “recycling” processes that could produce harmful emissions.

This legislation builds on the momentum we started last year, and we need to show up again to ensure it passes. A packed room will demonstrate to the County Council that residents demand stronger environmental protections.

Why This Matters:

  • CB11-2025 will prevent plastics recycling in PEC-zoned areas (industrial sites near residential neighborhoods).
  • Strong community turnout is essential to getting this bill passed.
  • Showing up in numbers sends a clear message that Howard County prioritizes clean air and public health.

How You Can Help:

  • Attend the hearing – Arrive by 6:30 PM to get settled and connect with other supporters.
  • Wear red – A visible show of support will help council members see how many people stand behind this bill.
  • Bring friends, family, and neighbors – The more people in the room, the greater our impact.

Sign up here to give testimony.
