WASHINGTON (AP) - The White House says President Barack Obama will nominate former Republican Rep. Anne Northup of Kentucky to a seat on the Consumer Product Safety Commission.

Obama is increasing the number of seats on the commission from three to five. The agency is responsible for policing the safety of a variety of consumer products, from children's toys and cribs to power tools and household chemicals.

Northup was a member of the House from 1997-2006


Don't know anything about her.

It's bull crap that Obama is increasing the numer of seats to 5. It's it the bloomin bill that was passed a year ago. The Congress of wouldn't vote in any of Bush's nominees.
