"If I knew a product was killing people right now, I COULDN'T tell you" Surprising words from the govt agency that's SUPPOSED TO WARN CONSUMERS about dangerous products.

US Consumer Product Safety Commission's staff found that ASTM F2057-23 reasonably meets the requirements of the STURDY Act. We encourage Peter Feldman (CPSC), Commissioner Rich Trumka Jr., Alex Hoehn-Saric +Mary Boyle to vote in favor as it effectively addresses the reasons tip-overs happen and will save lives! bit.ly/CPSCbriefpkgas…

PAT mom Janet McGee has worked hard to implement the new voluntary standard for furniture stability. This new standard would have saved her son Teddy’s life because it tests CSUs with multiple drawers open at once. Alex Hoehn-Saric Peter Feldman (CPSC), Commissioner Rich Trumka Jr., Mary Boyle

This article highlights recent tip-over issues. It's no wonder consumers sometimes seek legal recourse because many of these products are still not being manufactured with the proper duty of care. It's time for manufacturers and retailers to do better! bit.ly/tipoverlawsuits

There is a significant advancement in furniture stability!  ASTM 2057-23 would have saved my daughter Maddie’s life as it significantly raises the test weight from 50 to 60lbs, Alex Hoehn-Saric Peter Feldman (CPSC), Commissioner Rich Trumka Jr., Mary Boyle ParentsAgainstTipovers @maddiesmessage

The new ASTM CSU standard is a huge advancement in safety and includes testing for wardrobes and units with doors like the one that killed Katie in 2005. Had it been mandatory then, she'd be in college today. judy wogan Alex Hoehn-Saric Peter Feldman (CPSC), Commissioner Rich Trumka Jr., Mary Boyle

One of the reasons dressers tip over is because of the forces exerted when a child interacts with them. The new ASTM standard includes testing for dynamic force. Had it been mandatory in 2017, Conner would still be alive. Alex Hoehn-Saric Peter Feldman (CPSC), Commissioner Rich Trumka Jr., Mary Boyle

Important recall for teachers/schools, libraries, childcare providers, places of worship and anyone who might have this AV cart. 3 children have died as a result of tip-overs. Any AV cart can pose this risk. Never let children push or use the carts. cbsnews.com/news/luxor-rec…

The tip-over hazard that killed Curren 9 years ago is almost fixed. Dressers should be tested to address the causes of tipovers. The new ASTM standard accomplishes this, has broad support, and should be made mandatory ASAP! Alex Hoehn-Saric Peter Feldman (CPSC), Commissioner Rich Trumka Jr., Mary Boyle

PAT collaborated with all stakeholders to pass the STURDY Act and improve the ASTM standard. On 4/19 we hope Alex Hoehn-Saric Peter Feldman (CPSC), Commissioner Rich Trumka Jr., Mary Boyle will agree F2057-23 meets the requirements of STURDY. It would have saved our kids and hundreds of others.

Our kids needlessly died from CSU tip-overs and that is what drove us to push for a mandatory CSU safety and stability standard. They were stolen from us because the US Consumer Product Safety Commission and ASTM failed to fix the problem decades ago Alex Hoehn-Saric Peter Feldman (CPSC), Commissioner Rich Trumka Jr., Mary Boyle

Tomorrow, the CPSC is voting to determine if ASTM F2057-23 meets the requirements of the STURDY Act. We championed both, born of the desire for an effective solution all stakeholders agree on. We hope Alex Hoehn-Saric Peter Feldman (CPSC), Commissioner Rich Trumka Jr., Mary Boyle agree. We'll be watching!

Today could be the day I can truly honor the promise I made Meggie the day she died. The US Consumer Product Safety Commission is voting today on adopting the new ASTM standard as the mandatory one per the STURDY Act. Please, listen to Meggie Alex Hoehn-Saric Peter Feldman (CPSC), Commissioner Rich Trumka Jr., Mary Boyle
