In a press conference, US Senator Kirsten Gillibrand of New York and New York General Attorney Eric Schneiderman pledged their support for a microbead ban across the state. Gillibrand said: "These tiny pieces of plastic have already caused significant ecological damage to New York's waterways, and they will continue to do so until they are removed from the marketplace."
