It's been a while, but after a string of victories, the magnet ban is on it's way back. This petition revived and updated.
The 2022 adult magnet prohibition bans all small high powered magnets except for: "research and educational products, or those intended for commercial or industrial purposes, if they are not also intended for amusement or jewelry."
In other words, even if the magnets are for educational or industrial use, they are prohibited for all ages if amusement is involved. Literally regulating the fun out of magnets.

Your comment can be as long or as short as you want. If you're not sure what to say, here's a boilerplate:
It's a false dichotomy that recreational high-power magnets must either be prohibited to all ages, or result in a torrent of injuries. An all ages prohibition is not reasonable, especially when an alternative lies in ASTM-F3458-21 which includes child resistant packaging and warnings more vigorous than cigarettes and fireworks combined. I urge the CPSC to avoid a non-consensual prohibition on recreational magnets for Adults, and work on limiting sales to those who can use magnets safely.
Speak now while you still can.
