HRES 1352 is a non-binding House resolution expressing support for designating July 2024 as "Plastic Pollution Action Month." It does not create new laws or funding but formally recognizes plastic pollution as a threat to human health and the environment, citing statistics like 171 trillion plastic pieces in oceans and low U.S. recycling rates. The resolution encourages all individuals to participate in reducing plastic pollution year-round through reusable alternatives and cleanup efforts. It directly affects no specific group or policy, serving only as a symbolic gesture to raise awareness.
