WASHINGTON, June 30, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Mary T. Boyle was sworn in as a Commissioner for the Consumer Product Safety Commission today. Boyle was nominated by President Joseph R. Biden in July, 2021.
Boyle has served in leadership roles at the CPSC for more than a decade, including as General Counsel. Most recently she served as the agency's Executive Director. Throughout her tenure, she has spearheaded key initiatives to protect consumers from hazardous and unsafe products, including the agency's safety efforts on safe sleep and high-powered magnets. In addition, over the years, Boyle has been instrumental in advancing the agency's enforcement efforts.
Before joining the Commission staff, Boyle developed affordable housing programs for the city of Gaithersburg, Md., worked in private practice at a major international law firm, and served on Capitol Hill as a staff member for the late Congressman Stephen J. Solarz and for the Asia and Pacific Subcommittee of the House Foreign Affairs Committee.
"Mary's depth of knowledge, insight and commitment to public safety will serve her well in her new role and will be a tremendous asset to the Commission as we work to keep consumers safe from hazardous products," said CPSC Chair Alexander Hoehn-Saric. "I am grateful the Commission will continue to benefit from Mary's expertise and I look forward working with her, and with the rest of our colleagues, to improve consumer product safety for all Americans."
