SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE. 
This Act may be cited as the ‘‘Setting Consumer 
Standards for Lithium-Ion Batteries Act’’. 
SEC. 2. CONSUMER PRODUCT SAFETY STANDARD FOR CER-
TAIN BATTERIES. 
(a) CONSUMER PRODUCT SAFETY STANDARD RE-
QUIRED.—Not later than 180 days after the date of the 
enactment of this Act, the Consumer Product Safety Com-
mission (referred to in this section as the ‘‘Commission’’) 
shall promulgate, under section 553 of title 5, United 
States Code, the provisions of ANSI/CAN/UL 2271– 
Standard for Batteries for Use in Light Electric Vehicle 
Applications, ANSI/CAN/UL 2849–Standard for Safety 
for Electrical Systems for eBikes, and ANSI/CA/UL 
2272–Standard for Electrical Systems for Personal E-Mo-
bility Devices, as in effect on the date of enactment of 
this Act, as final consumer product safety standards. 
(b) CONSUMER PRODUCT SAFETY COMMISSION DE-
TERMINATION
OF SCOPE.—In adopting the standards 
under subsection (a), the Commission shall limit the appli-
cation of such standards to consumer products as defined 
in section 3(a)(5) of the Consumer Product Safety Act (15 
U.S.C. 2052(a)(5)). 
(c) REVISION OF VOLUNTARY STANDARDS.— 
(1) NOTICE TO COMMISSION.—If the provisions 
of ANSI/CAN/UL 2271–Standard for Batteries for
Use in Light Electric Vehicle Applications, ANSI/ 
CAN/UL 2849–Standard for Safety for Electrical 
Systems for eBikes, or ANSI/CAN/UL 2272–Stand-
ard for Electrical Systems for Personal E-Mobility 
Devices, are revised following the enactment of this 
Act, the organization that revised the requirements 
of such standard shall notify the Commission after 
the final approval of the revision. 
(2) TREATMENT
OF
REVISION.—The revised 
voluntary standard shall be considered to be a con-
sumer product safety standard issued by the Com-
mission under section 9 of the Consumer Product 
Safety Act (15 U.S.C. 2058), effective 180 days 
after the date on which the organization notifies the 
Commission (or such later date specified by the 
Commission in the Federal Register) unless, within 
90 days after receiving that notice, the Commission 
notifies the organization that it has determined that 
the proposed revision, in whole or in part, does not 
improve the safety of the consumer product covered 
by the standard and that the Commission is retain-
ing the existing consumer product safety standard. 
(d) TREATMENT OF STANDARD.—A standard pro-
mulgated under this section, including a revision of such 
standard adopted by the Commission, shall be treated as
a consumer product safety rule promulgated under section 
9 of the Consumer Product Safety Act (15 U.S.C. 2058). 
(e) REPORT TO CONGRESS.—

the date of enactment of this Act, the Commission 
shall submit to the Committee on Commerce, 
Science, and Transportation of the Senate and the 
Committee on Energy and Commerce of the House 
of Representatives, a report regarding fires, explo-
sions, and other hazards relating to lithium-ion bat-
teries used in micromobility products during the pe-
riod beginning on the date of enactment of this Act 
and ending on the report date. 
(2) CONTENT.—The report required by para-
graph (1) shall describe, at a minimum— 
(A) the source of the information that was
