SEN DEMINTS BILL -- PLEASE CONTACT THE SENATORS ON THIS SMALL COMMITTEE NO MATTER WHERE IN THE US YOU LIVE – I called up senators from many states to give them my comments. Surprisingly, most didn’t ask where I live so it seems they’re taking input from anyone. The United States Capitol switchboard (202) 224-3121..:

I have been calling Sen Hutchison every day for the last week urging her to support. Her aide has told me they are all just tied up with the stimulus and so aren't thinking about the CPSIA. Grrr.

So sorry to hear that Janecol22.
I called lots of senators - from my state and the others as well. Can't hurt to call them all.
