As February 10th and the CPSIA deadline draws closer, the Home School Legal Defense Association (HSLDA) plans to meet with the commissioners of the Consumer Product Safety Commission on Wednesday, February 4. HSLDA has requested actual accounts from homeschooling family business owners who will have to go out of business, or who have had to make drastic cutbacks, as a result of this legislation and the proposed regulations.
If you are interested in having the HSLDA use your family business as an example, please send them your contact information and a one- or two-page summary of your family business, the impact of the CPSIA, and what the likely harm to you will be. You may send this information to Eric Lansing at federalrelations@hslda.org. You may reach Eric and the rest of the HSLDA Federal Relations staff at 540-338-5600, if you have additional questions. They state that the will only share your first name, name of your business, and your state of residence with the CPSC.
