It's time for common-sense transparency to protect consumers from the sale of fraudulent, expired, defective & unsafe products online. The #INFORMConsumers Act will make it much harder for bad actors to peddle illicit goods to unsuspecting consumers bit.ly/3tQlFgy

Tremendous strides have been made in recent weeks lowering the rate of COVID infections & ramping up vaccinations. Now's not the time to jeopardize this progress.

Today's events were nothing less than an attack on our democracy. It’s time for men & women of goodwill in government to denounce the conspiracy theories & cancerous rhetoric employed by those cravenly attempting to capitalize on political chaos. bit.ly/3986LcH

Uniform, statewide orders create clarity for businesses, customers, & law enforcement as they focus on safely reopening. More from our letter to governors here: cnbc.com/2020/07/07/business… #WearYourMask #ShoppingSafe
With a patchwork of state and local rules mandating face coverings, companies are left to enforce their own mask policies. cnb.cx/2VXHoo2

NEW: Today we released a Blueprint for #ShoppingSafe that outlines a phased-in approach to reopening retail & urges governors to issue uniform, statewide protocols to help keep employees & customers safe. More from @nsnix87: bloom.bg/2KzIuR3

NEW: In a joint letter w/ @NRFnews we are asking state & local policymakers @NatlGovsAssoc @usmayors to communicate & coordinate w/ retailers before making decisions on whether to close or curtail retail business operations.

Joint statement from retail lobby group @NRFnews @RILAtweets urging consumers not to hoard. Full statement here, but in short "if you don't need an item in the next 2 weeks, leave it for someone who does....hoarding products only contributes to the fear surrounding the virus"
Jason Brewer retweeted
To the retail workers across America stocking shelves, dispensing medicine, and making sure every family has what they need during this emergency – THANK YOU. #ThankYouRetailWorkers

"If uncertainty spreads from Wall Street to Main Street, the record expansion we’re enjoying will undoubtedly come to an end and it will be the American consumer, not China, who will suffer."

This is welcomed news for leading retailers - @RILA_Hun says it will "mitigate some pain for consumers through the holiday season," but it does not eliminate the "uncertainty the trade war has created for the American economy." bit.ly/33yoXss
