Michigan's bottle deposit law divides retailers and shoppers
Original: What should Michigan do with its bottle deposit law? Retailers want it gone, shoppers say otherwise
Michigan's decades-old bottle deposit law is under debate as retailers push to repeal the 10-cent deposit on cans and bottles, citing costs and handling burdens. Shoppers, however, largely support keeping the program, which has long helped keep litter off streets and highways and sustains a popular recycling habit across the state.
Why now: Retailers are renewing calls to scrap the law, prompting public debate over its costs versus recycling benefits
