I hope the small manufacturer (Georgie's World?) quoted in the article ships all her "hazardous material" off to Congress!

Re: New Bloomberg Article on CPSIA

In the article it says, “This law passed because our product safety net was broken,” said Rachel Weintraub, senior counsel for the Consumer Federation of America, a nonprofit organization based in Washington. “The answer is not to reopen the bill.”

Here is the Consumer Federation Of America's contact info if anyone feels the need to share their opinion!

From CFA's website, here is what they do: As an advocacy group, it works to advance pro-consumer policy on a variety of issues before Congress, the White House, federal and state regulatory agencies, state legislatures, and the courts. Its staff works with public officials to promote beneficial policies, to oppose harmful policies, and to ensure a balanced debate on important issues in which consumers have a stake.

Hmm, they certainly aren't representing my best interest as a consumer when suggesting no changes should be made to CPSIA.

Exactly threewagons! These "consumer protection" groups aren't protecting the consumer at all, they're just advancing their own selfish agendas.

Re: New Bloomberg Article on CPSIA

Do you ever think about the news reports that have been done "that's nice, but it's not enough"? I feel like I want every media outlet screaming the CPSIA story every day, you know?
