1. >Washington is now the seventh U.S. state with a [packaging EPR law](https://www.wastedive.com/news/epr-for-packaging-washington-heads-to-governor-extended-producer-responsibility-ferguson/746219/)…Now that Washington has adopted the law, the whole West Coast of the U.S. has an EPR for packaging program. [California and Oregon have also adopted such laws](https://www.packagingdive.com/news/extended-producer-responsibility-packaging-laws-regulations-calendar/727548/). The [Recycling Reform Act](https://app.leg.wa.gov/billsummary?BillNumber=5284&Chamber=Senate&Year=2025) creates an extended producer responsibility program for most kinds of paper and packaging. It also establishes a statewide recycling collection list and calls for adding curbside recycling for all homes that already have curbside trash service.

   Bravo!
