Consumer Products Safety Improvement Act

So everyone has about the new Consumer Products Safety Improvement Act, right? I learned about this right before Christmas and it is just so depressing. In a nutshell, legislation was passed to protect children from unsafely manufactured toys, but it was poorly written and hastily passed. Basically, unless it is amended, the current act will likely put small businesses out of business and make handmade toys unavailable for sale.

Don't let them throw the baby out with the bath water! Save handmade toys!

Read all about it at Cool Mom Picks and here Handmade Toy Alliance and here at ETSY.

Please Vote on Change.org!

Thank you!
