WASHINGTON, Aug. 2 (UPI) -- Two bills passed by the U.S. House of Representatives are aimed at protecting American children, Rep. Henry Waxman, D-Calif., said Saturday.
"The first, to reinvigorate the Consumer Product Safety Commission and strengthen its ability to assure safe toys for our children," Waxman said during the weekly Democratic radio address. "The second is legislation that provides the authority to regulate tobacco and stop tobacco companies from targeting our kids."
