This bill would ban weighted sleep products designed for infants up to one year old, classifying them as hazardous products under federal consumer safety law. The ban covers wearable blankets, sleep sacks, swaddles, and similar items that include added weight for purposes beyond insulation or decoration. The Consumer Product Safety Commission would have authority to create regulations defining the terms and scope of the ban. The legislation would take effect 180 days after enactment, applying to all weighted infant sleep products regardless of when they were manufactured, and would prohibit their sale, manufacture, and import into the United States.
