Dear Supporters,
21 U.S.C. 360jj(a)(2) requires the FDA to submit to Congress a study to determine the necessity for the development of standards for electronic products. The FDA will argue that Congress never specifically identified LED products, and therefore the FDA can ignore this requirement. Given that over 75,000 individuals have signed this petition, the FDA's excuse is unwarranted.
Mark Baker and the Soft Lights Foundation submitted a federal regulatory petition to the FDA on December 30, 2025, requesting that the FDA comply with 21 U.S.C. 360jj(a)(2), and study LED products and submit a report to Congress within 1 year.
(https://www.softlights.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/Petition-to-Report-to-Congress.pdf).
If the FDA does not approve our petition within 180 days, I will file a lawsuit against the FDA for abuse of discretion and/or agency decision unlawfully withheld.
Sincerely,
Mark Baker
President
Soft Lights Foundation
