Nancy Nord, the head of the Consumer Product Safety Commission, has announced that she won’t heed Democratic lawmakers’ calls for her resignation. She also opposes Democratic efforts to double her agency’s funding and give it more authority.

“At this point I have no intention of resigning,” she told the AP. “I’m doing my job, and part of my job is to talk with Congress about the tools and resources we need.” Yesterday Nancy Pelosi said Nord should resign.

It’s also being reported that Nord rejected criticism that she is controlled by the White House and too cozy with manufacturers.
