Recall fraud is not a victimless offense. It directly undermines product safety.
Today, @USCPSC launched a national effort to detect and deter fraud in recall programs.
We want your input:

Yesterday, I had the opportunity to meet with students from @VTPamplin and get a preview of their semester projects.
It was great to see how the next generation of leaders is thinking about product safety. Thank you to @virginia_tech for hosting me.
Congratulations to @JeffClarkUS, a dediated public servant, on the completion of his service in the Trump 47 administration. His leadership on regulatory policy and engagement with agencies, including the @USCPSC, helped advance important priorities. Wishing him the very best.
Recall: Over 3.2 Million Weber Metal Wire Bristle Grill Brushes; Small metal wire bristles can detach from the brushes, stick to the grill or food, posing an ingestion hazard and risk of serious internal injuries that could require surgery. Get replacement https://t.co/YbJMqGN7RD
🚨3.2M+ hazardous grill brushes recalled. Detached metal bristles have been swallowed, sending consumers for medical treatment. Act now: stop using & discard these brushes.
Manufacturers of similar brushes have a choice: work with CPSC or face continued enforcement scrutiny.
Keeping Americans safe requires timely reporting. Today, CPSC announced a $14.15M penalty against Clorox for failing to report a safety risk as required by law.
When companies don’t meet their obligations, @USCPSC won't hesitate to act.

Today, @USCPSC withdrew accreditation from Chinese laboratories that test products after uncovering falsified reports and serious integrity failures.
Our message is clear: labs that cheat will not be allowed to certify products for the U.S. market.
As the holiday shopping season begins, CPSC is issuing an urgent safety warning about @RadPowerBikes e-bike batteries. Multiple fire incidents have been reported. Consumers should immediately stop using these batteries due to the risk of fire and serious injury or death.
Last week I toured @STLlighthouse, where hundreds of blind Americans build the safe effective aerosol dusters Americans rely on. Last month we ended a Biden-era regulation that would cost these manufacturing jobs and eliminate useful products, without making families any safer.
Federal Newswire highlights economist @coachbuckethead's concerns about “gaming the math” in regulatory cost-benefit analysis, including inflating the value of a statistical life (VSL). Last month CPSC rescinded its flawed VSL guidance to restore sound, lawful rulemaking.
@USCPSC is fully aligned with @AFergusonFTC's deletion of regs that weaken competition & strenghten monopolies, as the Biden-era Table Saw Rule would have done. CPSC was happy to contriubte to this effort. Our standards must advance safety, not one patent holder's market share.

This past April, President Trump asked the whole federal government to identify regulations that protect monopolies, stifle competition, and hurt innovation. After an extensive FTC and DOJ study of federal regulations, I can assure you: regulatory capture is real. The regulations we identified shield corporate behemoths and lock out their competition—Crony Capitalism at its worst.
✅ CPSC Beats Biden Recall Record.
@USCPSC under the Trump-Vance administration has already surpassed Biden’s 2024 recall total, more than 100 days ahead of schedule. 376 recalls & warnings so far in 2025, with months still to go. Stronger, faster, and mission focused. 🇺🇸
