Missoulians hurry to get plastic ban on November ballot

Voters may have an opportunity to choose whether to ban some single-use plastics in the City of Missoula, thanks to a court ruling that overturned a recent state law.

On Thursday, members of the Families for a Livable Climate Beyond Plastics Working Group submitted a petition to the Missoula County Elections Office that could put an initiative on the November ballot to regulate some single-use plastics.
