On Monday, April 16th, Vermont Gov. Phil Scott vetoed S.103, the legislature’s update to the children’s products reporting law. HCPA had joined allied trades in calling for the governor’s veto in light of the already onerous regulatory framework for children’s products reporting. In his veto message Gov. Scott noted “The regulatory process is working and should proceed as originally envisioned. With a robust process in place, children will not be any safer as a result of the proposed changes contained in this bill.” To read the whole veto letter click here. Shortly following the veto, the Vermont Senate passed an override of the veto on a 22-8 vote. HCPA will continue to engage members in the State House to support the governor’s action in support of our industry.
