After a very difficult year in the toy industry, the Senate has passed a toy safety bill that will require additional testing by 3rd party groups, as well as mandating standards that are currently voluntary. Six types of phthalates will also also be banned, should the President sign this legislation.The White House has voiced concerns but has not threatened a veto of the bill.
If the legislation passes, it is still too late to affect any toys sold this coming holiday season. Continue to shop wisely and make effective decisions for your family!
