: LaBovick Injury Law BlogConsumer Product Safety Bill reaches compromise in the Senate
By Brian F. LaBovick, Esq.
Lawmakers reached a compromise on a Consumer Product Safety Senate bill. It is the first major overhaul of the nation's consumer product safety system in a generation.
The deal, was a bi-partisan effort, being led by Sens. Mark Pryor (D-Ark.), Daniel K. Inouye (D-Hawaii) and Ted Stevens (R-Alaska). There was a lot of behind the scenes maneuvering, but the congressional members managed to come to a compromise to address last year's product liability claims and recalls for millions of Chinese-made toys, including iconic playthings such as Barbie and Thomas the Tank Engine.
