President Donald Trump fired three Democrats serving on the Consumer Product Safety Commission after the Department of Government Efficiency visited the agency on Thursday.
The firings leave the independent agency with two Republicans, acting CPSC Chairman Peter Feldman and Douglas Dziak, on the five-person board. It is unclear if their firings were related to the wide DOGE government spending cuts.
The agency’s former chairman, Alex Hoehn-Saric, who was also fired, said Friday that “Trump is attempting to illegally remove me from the CPSC” along with his colleagues Mary Boyle and Richard L. Trumka Jr., the latter of whom ignited controversy in 2023 over weighing a ban on gas stoves.

The Trump administration has fully implemented the defunding of the UNFPA that it announced back in March and announced today that no new funding will the directed to it. And the pro-abortion agency is unhappy.
As LifeNews reported then, Trump has ordered the defunding of the UNFPA, a United Nations population control agency which promotes abortions worldwide.
This is a continuation of his pro-life policy from his previous administration. In 2017, Trump signed an executive order defunding the UN population group because it pushes abortions on other countries and has worked with China for decades to implement its forced abortion population control policies.
Trump officials previously informed the UN Population Fund that nearly all of its grants would be discontinued. That defunding has taken place – with some $335 million in taxpayer funds yanked from the pro-abortion UN agency. Now, Trump officials have informed the UN group that new funding will not take place in future years.
