Responsible Buying for Nonprofit Needs
The organizations, laws and guidelines you should be aware of to ensure your apparel orders are safe, socially responsible and compliant.
STATE LAW
Along with the CPSC and other federal organizations, states and other local jurisdictions have laws and rules regarding product safety. They are many and varied, some going down to the city level (though not related to apparel, the plastic bags bans passed by Los Angeles and other cities would be an example of cities passing product regulations). State and local laws technically only apply to the jurisdiction of the governed area, however some of them are either so common, like the increasing restrictions on formaldehyde (commonly used in stabilizers for embroidery) or from states so large, like California's Proposition 65, that they're effectively national law.
