Hey @gavinnewsom.bsky.social please sign #AB823 (Boerner), a bill that bans toxic plastic microbeads and glitter in personal care and cleaning products. I especially worry about my granddaughters absorbing microplastics and harming their future health. #CAmustlead!
Had a great time with the CA Alliance for Children’s Environmental Health, bringing together parents, medical professional, and young people to lobby to ban toxic PFAS, tackle microplastics and extreme heat, and make our kid’s food safe #SB682 #AB1264 #AB823 #SB646 #SB655
#AB823 to ban toxic plastic microbeads PASSED the Senate Judiciary Committee with unanimous, bipartisan support!
If signed, AB 823 would be first in the nation to ban plastic glitter and plastic microbeads in cleaning products.
Big win for public health & our planet! California advances AB 823—the first-in-the-nation bill to ban toxic plastic microbeads & glitter in personal care and cleaning products.

Plastic pollution is a public health emergency. These tiny toxins end up in our oceans, our food, & our bodies. #AB823 takes a bold step to protect Californians, our communities, & the environment we love.
