[GreenYes] Columbia, MO - Deposit Ordinance Repeal Vote Today

["David Markert" <dmarkert@container-recycling.org>]

Columbians are voting today on whether to repeal or keep their local deposit
ordinance.  Early reports from the polls indicate that it is likely that the
repeal effort will succeed.

CRI has been very involved in the fight to save Columbia's deposit law in
many ways; primarily we've been helping Columbians Against Throwaways (CAT)
with its media campaign.  Several ads have been placed in Columbia's daily
newspaper, the Columbia Daily Tribune, urging voters to vote 'NO' on Prop. 1
(No = keep deposit ordinance).

To view the ads and learn more about what is happening in Columbia, visit
