With the start of a new presidential administration and a new session of Congress this month, Consumer Reports (CR) is sharing policy recommendations with officials to help consumers in the year ahead.
CR is an independent, nonprofit and nonpartisan organization. Founded in 1936, we are known for our rigorous testing and ratings of thousands of products. Every month, we provide ad-free content to millions of Americans, including our 5 million members who live in all 50 states. We conduct hundreds of consumer surveys annually, and we investigate the challenges that consumers face every day. For decades, CR has put our trusted data to work in Washington, D.C., where we share our findings with policymakers, and we advocate for laws and company policies that put consumers first.
