Alternative For The Left (AFL)	7	Yes	The AFL supports strong consumer protections and believes the economy must serve people. The Consumer Goods Safety Reform of 2025 should guarantee every buyer rights when a product is faulty or unsafe. People should receive a refund or replacement within a defined period without disputes, delays or unfair treatment. safety standards must remain in place so manufacturers cannot put profit ahead of public safety. The AFL supports clear rules that hold companies accountable for the goods they sell while giving responsible businesses requirements. Consumer protection is not bureaucracy; it is a basic safeguard for vulnerable people. We believe a fair marketplace requires corporate responsibility, and rights for consumers. The AFL will support reforms that reduce exploitation, strengthen safety, and ensure people can challenge businesses when their rights are violated. This is about building an economy that works for everyone. It puts people before profit.
