New resource recently launched by the crafter/activist who did business as Whimsical Walney, with help from the one who does business at Organic Baby Farm: WhatIsTheCPSIA.com, a site for everyone trying to get up to speed on the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act and the reasons it needs reform. Among the many common questions it seeks to answer (with new material being added steadily): “I thought CPSIA is a toy law, why do you have to test clothes?”, “Why does CPSIA affect home crafters?”, “Can’t CPSC make exemptions to CPSIA for certain products?”, “Why does CPSIA affect schools?”. Worth checking out. (Corrected to add proper credit to Whimsical Walney; more.)

I thought it was Dana’s (whimsical walney) site.
Thanks for the mention! In all fairness, though, it’s Dana, formerly of Whimsical Walney, who’s the founder of whatisthecpsia.com. I just write some of the posts for it.
Thanks for the correction, now incorporated in the text, and my apologies to Dana (Whimsical Walney) for my earlier confusion.
This site is a great resource for all who are new to CPSIA. We are referring manufacturers, retailers, and consumers on a daily basis. Love the format of questions that people are really asking! Kudos to the women behind it!
