Sunshine in Product Safety Act
S.836, the Sunshine in Product Safety Act, removes a specific disclosure requirement from the Consumer Product Safety Act. It amends Section 6 by striking subsection (b), which previously required manufacturers to disclose certain information about consumer products. This change directly affects product manufacturers and the Consumer Product Safety Commission, as it eliminates a mandated disclosure process. The bill does not create new requirements but modifies existing ones to remove this specific disclosure obligation. The key provision is the deletion of subsection (b) in Section 6 of the Consumer Product Safety Act.
