Help stop dangerous toys from reaching our homes

The announcement that Mattel, one of the nation's biggest toy manufacturers had to recall 9 million toys that children know and love gives us hope that maybe the Congress will finally do something about beefing up our tiny agency that is supposed to protect us from these hazards.

CPSC lacks the leadership, the money, the staff and the legal authority it needs to protect us from either dangerous imported or dangerous domestically-produced products. As the manufacturer, Mattel is responsible, but CPSC needs more resources to hold it and other manufacturers accountable when they break the law.

Urge the Bush Administration to protect our children from dangerous toys by giving the CPSC the resources it needs to operate efficiently.
