Cool Joe Biden

And wasn't it going to cost manufacturers thousands to comply with it?

According to the CBO, industry-wide it will cost manufacturers over $87 million / year to comply with these new regulations, which has a negligible impact. It's really a way to put the smaller factories out of business, because they would not be able to afford the extra expense.

That's probably true. I personally can't understand why Biden would mandate this with so little benefit to the consumer. It's really not selling point. And if the cost goes up for the manufacturer that cost increase is usually passed on to the customer.
