Welcome to the June edition of the Alston & Bird
CPSC Recall Snapshot.
The U.S. Senate confirmed Dana Baiocco as a commissioner of the CPSC on May 22, 2018. President Trump originally nominated Baiocco on September 21, 2017, and some voiced concern that she was “too close” to industries for the position. However, the Senate confirmed her with a vote of 50-45. Commissioner Baiocco will serve a seven-year term, which runs through October 2024. She replaces Marietta Robinson, whose term ended in October 2017.
