Consumer representative at State Department faces scrutiny
Joan Braden, named to a $37,800-a-year consumer representative post at the State Department, argues the job will be workable with consumer impact statements on policy. Critics say agency-only reps lack power and fear the plan is window dressing as Ford pursues consumer protection via internal agency offices. Braden meets daily with officials, handles calls from diverse voices, and recently traveled to Nairobi to study trade and development agreements affecting prices.
