Bloggers at the fantastic Safer States website contacted us yesterday to help us update our map of proposed BPA bans across the country. I'd compiled all the ones I could find, but the folks at Safer States have ties to the National Conference of State Legislators, which feeds them info on early-stage legislation. Many of these bills may be long shots, but it sure changes the map!



The full list now stands at:

• California


• Connecticut


• Illinois


• Hawaii


• Maryland


• Minnesota


• Mississippi


• Missouri


• Montana


• New Mexico


• New Jersey


• New York


• Oregon


• Pennsylvania


• Rhode Island


• Texas


• Vermont


• Wisconsin


• Washington State

By this accounting, the only "leaners" we know of (others we were hopeful about now do have live bills) are Delaware and Massachusetts.
