#3 can no longer provide single-use plastic straws unless they actively request one. In that case... To refuse to provide the plastic straw, or to ask why, could constitute a violation of New York City’s human rights

Typical of any law enforcement in NY these days. So no change, Grom! Entropy and human rights still win!
