Bill > S116

This bill, the COVID-19 Home Safety Act of 2021, requires the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) to submit quarterly reports to Congress and the public on the effect of the COVID-19 public health emergency on injuries and deaths associated with consumer products. The reports must include a list of the top consumer products that have caused serious injury or death during the pandemic, identify trends in these injuries and deaths, highlight subpopulations at elevated risk, and assess where these incidents are occurring. The bill also directs the CPSC to coordinate with the media to distribute home safety information based on the report findings. The COVID-19 public health emergency is defined as the public health emergency declared under the Public Health Service Act due to confirmed COVID-19 cases, including any renewals.
