Abolishing independent agencies for partisan political aims is a big mistake. Consumers and kids will get hurt.

Commissioner Richard Trumka Jr. @trumkacpsc.bsky.social · 11/07/2025

The Acting Chair’s delay on the Button Batteries Final Rule doesn’t just endanger children, it disrespects the parents and advocates who fought to make it happen.

Real leaders listen to the needs of those they serve. @cpsc.gov does this during our annual priorities hearing. Why did the CPSC’s acting chair cancel it for the second time? www.cpsc.gov/About-CPSC/C...

Why Is the Acting Chair Afraid to Hear From Consumers?

Thank you to @trumkacpsc.bsky.social, @hoehnsariccpsc.bsky.social, and Mary Boyle, the Consumer Product Safety Commissioners who were illegally fired, for speaking out against the dismantling of this lifesaving agency. Hear more about the important work of the CPSC:

First, @cpsc.gov Commissioners Hoehn-Saric, Trumka, and Boyle were unlawfully fired. Now, their X accounts have been deleted. Product safety should save lives. Not play politics. Not hide the truth. @consumerfed.bsky.social

Commissioner Richard Trumka Jr. @trumkacpsc.bsky.social · 19/05/2025

We were created to keep the public safe. Now, the 2 Commissioners left at @cpsc.gov are doing the exact opposite.

Commissioner Richard Trumka Jr. @trumkacpsc.bsky.social · 19/05/2025

They deleted my X account for speaking out against the illegal firings and for telling the truth about what’s happening inside of government. If they can censor me, they can censor you too. Follow @RichTrumkaJr on X and @Trumkacpsc everywhere else.

Today SHOULD have been our priorities hearing—the day when YOU get to tell us what we should be focusing on as an agency. Instead, shortly after we were illegally fired, that hearing was canceled. Silencing the public’s voice in the government is an attack we cannot take lying down.

Protect yourself and others by: 1️⃣: Subscribing to cpsc.gov/recalls 2️⃣: Beware of products that claim to be safety certified by @cpsc.gov (We don’t do that, that’s the company’s job). 3️⃣: Report unsafe products to saferproducts.gov

Experts at @cpsc.gov are working to keep you safe every day. Whether we're warning you about hazardous products, recalling them, or holding those shady companies accountable-we work for YOU. But no one can protect themselves from things they don't know about. ⬇️

100

Commissioner Richard Trumka Jr. @trumkacpsc.bsky.social · 24/04/2025

When @cpsc.gov discovers a product can harm you, some companies do the right thing and fix it immediately. Others? They delay, deny, and try to ignore us, all while continuing to sell the hazardous product. They are COUNTING on you being uninformed. But here's the good news: ⬇️

100

Commissioner Richard Trumka Jr. @trumkacpsc.bsky.social · 24/04/2025

In many cases, there's NO safety standard that requires products to be tested before they can be sold. And even when there are, plenty of companies still break those regulations because they're more interested in your wallet than your safety. ⬇️

Commissioner Richard Trumka Jr. @trumkacpsc.bsky.social · 24/04/2025

Myth: "They wouldn't sell it if it wasn't safe." Fact: @cpsc.gov recalled over 150 million products last year for serious hazards. Just because you can buy it off store shelves does NOT mean that it's been tested for safety. Let's break it down: 🧵⬇️

Less is more when it comes to infant sleep. The stuffed toys, pillows, and cozy knit blankets should NOT be in the crib with your baby. For more info: cpsc.gov/safesleep
