Consumer Protection Agency proposed in Congress with Nader support
The plan would create a federal Consumer Protection Agency independent of the White House, empowered to represent consumers before government hearings and agencies. It would receive consumer complaints, test product safety, publish results, and coordinate federal protection efforts while advising the president on consumer matters. Supporters call it landmark, saying it gives consumers a dedicated advocate for safety and value.
