Casey-led Legislation to Prevent Furniture Tip-Over Injury and Death Takes Effect
Press Release
Issues: Senior Citizens Minors and Children
"I passed the STURDY Act because too many families have faced unimaginable tragedy due to inadequate safety standards for furniture at risk of tipping over.
This law requires furniture manufacturers and retailers ensure the safety and stability of their products, so that parents can finally rest assured that new furniture they buy has been specifically manufactured with their kids' safety in mind. Simply put, because of this legislation, fewer children will die."
