Currently, manufacturers don’t need to disclose if the products they sell in Minnesota contain even the most toxic chemicals known to affect the health of children. The Toxic Free Kids Act requires manufacturers to report this to the state, giving parents the tools they need to make informed choices for their families. The Act also requires manufacturers to report their plans for phasing those chemicals out of their products.
