SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — California Attorney General Jerry Brown on Monday sued 20 companies, including Mattel and Toys R Us, on charges of selling toys containing "unlawful quantities of lead."
The suit, filed in Alameda County Superior Court, alleges the companies knowingly exposed children to lead and failed to warn of the risk, which is required under the Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986, known as Proposition 65.
