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

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...

Your annual reminder that fireworks are awesome, but can be dangerous. Remember these safety essentials when you celebrate Independence Day this weekend 🎆🇺🇸 PART 1/2

Here’s the update: @cpsc.gov is back. PART 1/2

I’m back, and ready to keep protecting the American public. PART ONE

The law is clear. We’re going to win this case, so that we can get back to protecting American consumers. www.citizen.org/news/trump-f...

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

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

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.

We agree with @trumkacpsc.bsky.social, any cuts to #CPSC would compromise #safety in homes and schools across the country! #ProtectCPSC #HandsOffCPSC

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.

Products aren’t just getting more expensive—they may also get more dangerous.

Every day this illegal firing stands is another day Americans are put in even greater danger.

See you in court, Mr. President. PART ONE:

I was illegally fired for standing up for the American people.

Soft surfaces like infant pillows and loungers are unsafe for infant sleep. Today, @cpsc.gov is protecting babies from infant pillow suffocation with our new safety standard.

Voting to prevent deaths is one of the easiest parts of my job. Today, @cpsc.gov advanced a solution to save innocent Americans from tragedy by lithium-ion battery fires.

Safety is for every age 👷The kids had a blast touring the lab at @cpsc.gov’s #TakeYourKidToWorkDay. Big thanks to our amazing staff for putting this together.

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: 🧵⬇️

We are finally moving forward to solve the lithium-ion battery fire problem that has been wreaking havoc across the country. Read my full statement: cpsc.gov/About-CPSC/C...

Just your average group of safety advocates 👨 So grateful for the passion and work being done at @injuryfreekids Phoenix. Their commitment to protecting families through their injury prevention programs is inspiring, and I’m excited to see what they do next.

Tell your contractor you want the *good* kitchen cabinets. It's National Poison Prevention Week.

This is nowhere near an exhaustive list, but I wanted to take a moment today to honor some of the incredible women I have had the privilege of meeting in the consumer product safety space. Through their life-saving work, they make history every day.

It’s National Consumer Protection Week (yes, it’s a real thing!) YOU deserve to shop safely—AKA without the fear that your new toaster is going to burst into flames. 🍞🔥 @USCPSC is here to keep you and your loved ones safe from hazardous products.👷🧑‍🔬 #NCPW

Auschwitz was at the end of a long process. It did not start from gas chambers. This hatred was gradually developed by humans. From ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder. Auschwitz took time.
