The place to discuss CPSIA
New letter from Rep. Dingell spells hope?
Please see the new letter from Representative Dingell asking frank questions of the CPSC on exactly how messed up is the CPSIA. He is also calling for a hearing into the matter. This could be seen as some kind of a break through. Keep pounding away out there!

Comment by Melanie Tommey on March 5, 2009 at 7:09pm - Wow! That IS a very good letter! And I agree...a start. I will plan to call my OK Congressmen's offices tomorrow and will reference the letter and urge them to work with Rep. Dingell and get this thing back on their radar and get it fixed! I'm also pleased to see that he raised the age issue...I feel that in addition to common sense amendments/exclusions on certain items and materials, that going up to the age of 12 is ridiculous...I think it should be children 5 and under and certain products made for that age group. By the time a child is 6 or 7 or older, they are not putting everything they see and touch into their mouths, like a toddler or preschooler would be inclined to do...Thanks for posting the letter!

Help Support the new CPSIA Documentary!
A CPSIA documentary is in the works. Since the mainstream media seems to think this is not worthy of their precious air time, this is another great way to get the word out and put our leaders on the "hot seat" to explain themselves. We know that the impact of this travesty is widespread. Now we just need to collect our pennies together and help support the documentary. We have over 700 members here. Imagine if everyone gave just $20....(that would be $14,000 and good chunk of the cost). Here is a quick way to make a donation.
This is a donation to support the making of a CPSIA documentary (see link for details). CPSIA-Central is not affiliated with this organization, and is offering this space for the paypal button in support of the documentary.
