So far this year, more than 30 million
lead-laced imported toys have been recalled in the United States. That's on
top of millions more toys that pose choking and other hazards. Killer toys
kinda make it hard for kids to truly enjoy the holidays. So a group of
youngsters came together to offer the following yuletide message. Feel free
to sing along - preferably with a group of carolers outside your local
Congress member's office. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hIXGXyQ6L1Q
Landmark legislation to outlaw a group of toxic
chemicals used in plastic children's toys and other products has been
approved by the State Legislature. In this Assembly Web Report for
Wednesday, September 5, 2007 we learn AB 1108, authored by Assemblymember
Fiona Ma (D-San Francisco), is headed to the Governor's desk for his
signature or veto. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eVCd4H1cq90
