Unfortunately, very little is being spoken or written about the new CPSIA law. What is out there is difficult to decipher even if you have a law degree.
One blogger wrote the best summary I have been able to find here: The Sky Is Falling- CPSIA Issue
What started out as something well meaning has grown into a huge mess that will put thousands out of business if something isn't done.
If I'm tapped, I will have to stop offering prints that could be defined as a children's product. That, of course is subjective. Yay.
For the best information, blogging and activist actions, go see this blog and then the forum.

Be sure to read the post "Bankruptcy Day" from earlier in the month.
Kathleen is extremely well versed and knowledgeable on this subject. I call her "The Goddess of CPSIA".

Thanks Trevor! I've been reading their blog and it's fantastic!
Becky I've been joining everything I can plus writing to any politicians from my district that I think will listen.
I am just hoping for some clarity since there are so many unanswered questions.
