NEW YORK (AP) — Donald Trump says Amazon founder and Washington Post owner Jeff Bezos is using his newspaper to help the online retailer avoid taxes.
The presumptive Republican presidential nominee tells Fox News that Bezos is "using The Washington Post for power so that the politicians in Washington don't tax Amazon like they should be taxed."
BOSTON – Framingham will join Cambridge, Newton and more than a dozen other Bay State communities in banning plastic bags used by retailers to package goods including groceries starting in January 2018.
Acting on a citizen's petition "to eliminate the usage of thin-film single-use bags by all retail and grocery stores," Framingham Town Meeting members approved the move by a hefty majority Thursday, according to several reports. The initiative, modeled after others adopted in the state, is aimed at curbing pollution and litter, and easing the burden on recycling operations, according to the Town Meeting Warrant.
