When they needed her most, presidential candidate Kamala Harris wanted to ban plastic straws. Now that the mania about banning plastic straws has subsided, she says they can remain a legal product.
An unnamed campaign staffer told Axios reporter Alex Thompson yesterday that Harris, contra a 2019 statement, no longer supports banning plastic straws. Even when she did, the staffer told Thompson, "she joked even then about how crappy paper straws are and the need to come up with better eco-friendly alternatives."
