We are excited to share that both @dssmithgroup shareholders and IP shareholders overwhelmingly voted in favor of the combination. The support from the shareholders of both companies reaffirms our belief that bringing the two companies together would create a true global leader of sustainable packaging solutions and more opportunities for our customers, people and all stakeholders. This represents another important step towards the potential combination and we continue to work through the regulatory approvals required to complete the transaction. Note: This post contains forward-looking statements that are subject to risks and uncertainties. Actual results may differ materially from those projected.

Our members rely heavily on the East and Gulf Coast ports to export products. This strike will have serious consequences for the U.S. economy and our industry. We urge the @WhiteHouse to work with the ILA and USMX to bring a swift resolution. bit.ly/3Y8Y8Iz

I was honored to join @RepMikeLevin, @AsmLaurieDavies, @Encinitas Mayor @Tony_Kranz, Mitch Silverstein from @SurfriderSD, Toby Ngo, chair of @CALPIRGStudent from @UCSanDiego, and the many volunteers who joined us at #MoonlightBeach. Together, we united in support of legislation aimed at reducing the use of #plastics, which have a significant impact on climate change and pose threats to our health and the environment. In particular, I am working hard to pass #SB1053, my bill that would replace all the use of plastic bags at check-out counters with paper or sustainable, reusable bags.
