Bill > S4884

This bill, the COVID-19 Home Safety Act of 2020, requires the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) to report on the effect of the COVID-19 public health emergency on injuries and deaths associated with consumer products. The report must be submitted every three months for the duration of the emergency and include information such as a list of top consumer products that caused serious injury or death during the pandemic, trends in injuries and deaths, identification of subpopulations at elevated risk, where most incidents occurred, and whether any products are under recall or subject to safety standards. The CPSC is also required to coordinate with media outlets to distribute safety information based on the report to help increase home safety during the COVID-19 emergency.
