Consumer Product Safety Commission is charged with protecting the public from 
unreasonable risks of serious injury or death from more than 15,000 types of 
consumer products under the agency's jurisdiction. Deaths, injuries and 
property damage from consumer product incidents cost the nation more than 
$700 billion annually. The CPSC is committed to protecting consumers and 
families from products that pose a fire, electrical, chemical, or mechanical 
hazard or can injure children. The CPSC's work to ensure the safety of 
consumer products - such as toys, cribs, power tools, cigarette lighters, and 
household chemicals - contributed significantly to the 30 percent decline in 
the rate of deaths and injuries associated with consumer products over the 
past 30 years.
