David Arkush talked about the consumer product safety legislation that passed the Senate on Thursday, March 6, 2008. He talked about the major points of the bill such as increased staffing and budget, mandated toy safety standards, and raising penalties for selling faulty goods to as much as $20 million. Mr. Arkush also talked about the differences between the House and Senate versions that would have to be resolved at a House-Senate conference. The House passed a separate bill in December 2007. He then discussed the possibility of having the final version reach the White House by July. Finally, he responded to telephone calls and electronic mail. close
