Toxic Baby Scares in BIBS!

Posted on August 18, 2007 and filed under Uncategorized

I’m re-posting this email so that you can be aware of all the NEW dangers out there for your children.

Dear MomsRising Member,

 Is it just me, or are you starting to get freaked out about all these
 toy recalls too? Just yesterday, I sat down for a peaceful breakfast
 (well, as peaceful as you can get with a Cheerio food fight going on),
 and on the front page of the New York Times there was an announcement of
 yet another massive recall of toys–and in the Business Section there
 was a story about lead in bibs for babies. What’s next?

 This must stop! There are already over 15,000 signatures on our “No
 Toxics in Toys” petition from last week. Let’s double that number. The
 Consumer Products Safety Commission (CPSC) needs the tools and authority
 to ensure our children’s safety. We can provide Congress with the
 political capital they need to pass legislation that stops toxic toys.

 SIGN THE PETITION & SEND IT TO 5 FRIENDS: Help us build a massive
 national movement that can’t be ignored. Sign the petition at:
 http://www.democracyinaction.org/dia/organizationsORG/momsrising/signUp.jsp?key=2362



 *Once you’ve signed the petition, please forward this email to
 friends, family, your book group, coworkers, school and sports lists, and
 favorite Big Bird fan. Let’s make a strong statement together by getting
 as many signers as possible.




 THE LOWDOWN: CPSC is an under-funded agency with an outdated
 regulatory authority. It needs the resources and authority to keep our children
 safe. It’s time to pass legislation to make sure CPSC can do its job
 to keep dangerous products out of our homes. Congress can take several
 steps to keep children safe:
 1) Give real teeth and authority to CPSC to keep toxics out of toys
 and set firm toxic limits (since there are only guidelines now);
 2) Create a third-party testing system and increase the fines for
 those companies who put toxics in toys;
 3) Fully fund the CPSC, which has had a stagnant budget since 2005,
 so it can enforce the laws;
 4) Increase staffing at CPSC since their current staffing is at its
 lowest level since the 1980s;
 5) Give authority to quickly release safety warnings about imminent
 hazards without manufacture approval.

 Two recently introduced bills in the Senate propose to do just this.
 Let’s make sure that Congress hears our strong support for this
 legislation. Our children need safe products NOW.

 PASS IT ON–KEEP TOXICS AWAY FROM KIDS: Can you think of any list you
 have not yet posted this petition on? Any friends who have been
 sneaking into their children’s rooms late at night to confiscate that special
 Big Bird toy? Get them involved and pass the petition on so we can get
 as many signers as possible!




 You can find the petition at
 http://www.democracyinaction.org/dia/organizationsORG/momsrising/signUp.jsp?key=2362

 Together, we can keep our kids safe from dangerous toxic products and
 focus on more important things, like protecting them from flying
 Cheerios.
