Trump Stops Ban on Plastic Bottles

As on command, I read today (from a month old article) that the US with President Trump stops a ban for national parks to sell bottled water in plastic bottles.

The law has been in effect since 2011 and has been removed after pressure from The International Bottled Water Association.

This law was a win-win for everyone, except maybe companies selling bottled water in plastic. There are so many other ways better than plastic.

Could this be because the new internal affairs minister, David Bernhardt, was once a lobbyist for the bottled water industry?
