Get the lead out, Bobby

The Chicago Tribune reports that “legislators, among them Rep. Bobby Rush (D-Chicago), are looking into this year’s recall of millions of lead-contaminated toys and children’s products, most of them made in China.”

Congressman Rush’s district includes a stretch of Englewood said to have one of the highest levels of lead poisoning in the United States – but few cameras to offer national attention to the problem. .
