Steve Kagen Wants To Throw Mothers And Grandmothers In Jail

Mothers, a call to arms.

Steve Kagen wants you to get fined $100,000 and get 5 years of imprisonment for selling your used baby cloths at your rummage sale. That's right ladies, mothers and grandmothers, off to prison for you!

No more rummage sales, no Good Will, no thrift shops, no hand made toys, no more freedom from our own country. Why would Steve Kagen vote yes on this bill and not know what was in the bill? His yes vote could mean fines and prison time. Will the people of the 8th district do anything about this? If you don't believe me , read on!

Information to CPSIA From Pheisty Blog
"Along came the CPSIA
January 8th, 2009"
PheistyBlog

What elected official wants to stand up and publicly say that they don’t want to pass legislation that supposedly protects children from lead poisoning? Of course there’s always more to it than that (such as in the case with the CPSIA), but most people don’t care to look that deeply into it. They’d much rather watch MSNBC and get pumped full of fear-mongering talking points to use at cocktail parties and the water cooler.

More information from Ladies Logic
"Have any of you heard about the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act of 2008? If you have, you probably heard that it was passed to protect children from imported goods that may contain lead or other harmful contaminants. Well did you know that the bill also includes the government-sanctioned testing of resale children’s clothing?

That’s right. As of February 10, 2009, you will no longer be able to sell or buy children’s used clothing under the CPSIA. Not at the Goodwill, not at a consignment shop, not on eBay. Not even at a yard sale. If you do, you face a $100,000 fine and 5 years of imprisonment. That is, unless the seller can find a government-approved way to test the garments that won’t force them out of business." Ladies Logic: Hell Hath No Fury...

CPSIA 2008 House Vote See here his yes vote on CPSIA.

Mothers and grandmothers, how could Steve Kagen let this happen. If you care about CPSIA then we all need to call Steve Kagen to get this changed! Remember this law takes effect Feb 10, 2009.

Is this the congressman for the 8th district that claims to care about his constituents and now is willing to throw mothers and grandmothers in jail. The law has to be changed! Maybe Steve Kagen doesn't really care about you mom and grandma!

Tell him to change the law now!

Call or write Steve Kagen about our FREEDOM!
