I support this bill. Companies should be required to tell the truth about their products. For instance, a product that contributes to pollution should not be advertised as being a green product. People should be able to take action against companies that falsely advertise.

32 submissionsI support this bill HB601 because it will allow people to take on corporations who lie about the harm their products cause. This bill will help prevent more greenwashing that companies like Exxon Mobil are famous for, to stop deceptive marketing that claims their products are green when they actively contribute to pollution. Lisa Olson, Deering, NH
Goes against hippocratic oath. Shame on you.
This bill would prevent corporations from lying about their products and practices and to enable consumers and communities to take deceptive businesses to court if and when they do. The bill would codify a set of consumer protections specific to deceptive climate marketing, i.e. climate greenwashing.
We should be allowed to know if a company is being honest with us, and if they are not, we should be able to take steps to hold them accountable. Aren't you for accountability?
We deserve to know what kind of products are being used without deception like greenwashing
I support this, Merrimack had their water poisoned for far too long by companies lying, and now they are getting away with it scott free. Protect the citizens of NH and pass this.
