Yep. She disparages ‘mommy-bloggers’ for spreading ‘misinformation’ on the internet! Do you believe this? (Of course, the poor sacrifical lamb has already resigned, her last day is tomorrow) Gee, why do you think they picked her to go on camera? There is a closed door Congressional Staffer meeting tomorrow about CPSIA. Today and tomorrow would be a REALLY good day to CALL, email and FAX everyone in congress you can think of as well as the CPSC. We would also appreciate you continuing to spread the word to go to http://www.savekidsresale and Click! to vote (the petition has over 70,000 signatures) as we intend to print out all 500 pages and distribute it to Congressional members tomorrow. As you know, the CPSC has done it’s best to quell the uproar our little corner of this devil in diapers that is CPSIA by their infamous ‘Press Release’. Thanks so much!

Imagine how they could be impacted if affected by the new law. Many of these pregnancy centers rely solely on the donations of individuals or thrift stores that donate items that aren't purchased. Also there are many church organizations that take household items as donations to help needy families. Everything from clothes and home furnishings are donated. With the new law, churches and other community organizations that rely on individual donations may no longer be able to operate. I'm not sure if I understand everything the new law is proposing but I'm fairly sure this reaches far beyond small businesses. <abbr><em><abbr><em>Nikki @ The Guilty Parents last blog post..<a href="http://www.theguiltyparent.com/?p=179" rel="nofollow">The First Guilty Parent Award of 2009</a></em></abbr></abbr></em> Let’s not forget about the pregnancy crisis centers who help unwed moms and low income families get prepared for their new baby, with toys, furniture, clothes, blankets.

There are still so many people who haven't heard about the CPSIA at all or are under the impression that it doesn't concern them. Thanks for linking to my blog and for a great post!
