Remember all those toy recalls due to excessive amounts of lead? It turns out George W. Bush’s Consumer Products Safety Commission only has only one full-time staffmember who tests toys. That’s one staffer standing between us and $600 billion of toys imported from China, a place where corner-cutting is rampant.
Let’s pass a federal law banning lead in toys. Let’s also find CPSC chairwoman Nancy Nord another job.
Heck of a job, Nordie.
