Video: Job creator being harmed by plastic bag bans

Late last month Stan Bikulege, the CEO of Hilex Poly, spoke on a special session of "Hannity," where he discussed how his business is being harmed by plastic bag bans--and proposed ones.

His firm operates ten plants and employs 1,250 workers. "State governments are trying to ban us out of existence--tax us out of existence." Bikulege told Sean.


The expense incurred by defending his company would be better spent by opening up a new plant, such as a recycling facility. Hilex Poly turns garbage into plastic bags.

Los Angeles is working towards a ban on plastic bags--one that will eventually ban paper bags as well.
