Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
Congress this week is debating legislation to strengthen the federal government’s consumer product safety watchdog. Consumer groups have been pushing for reforms in the wake of last year’s massive product recalls. But the private sector is worried that legislation will be harmful to both businesses and consumers. We look at the future product safety and government regulation.
Guests
- Rachel Weintraub Director of Product Safety; Consumer Federation of America
- Rosario Palmieri Vice President, Infrastructure, Legal and Regulatory Policy, National Association of Manufacturers
