Ladies, I came across some products that contain LEAD, (including Dooney and Bourke) that contain toxic levels of lead in them. California requires that all products come with a list of information, Prop. 65 at the bottom of all of these products. Read for yourself! Please pass this info on.

This isn't news, MeganRose. This has been in the news and discussed for some time now.
I live in California and very much appreciate Prop 65, but unless I or someone else was going to be licking or chewing on my handbag, I would not worry about any lead present.

Well, suzyQ3, I respect your opinion, however, we all have the right to be informed. I didn't know about this until the other day!

Oh, no, no, no -- I wasn't scolding you. I just wanted to mention that his handbag/lead issue has been around for quite some time now. It wasn't meant as a put-down at all.

Because in 1986, California voters approved an initiative on the ballot to address the issue of toxic chemicals that led to the Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act, which is generally referred to its original name -- Proposition 65.
If you're interested, here is a LINK to the the Act in plain language.

It's OK. I guess I just felt that way.

Apparently, we're supposed to wash our hands after handling the bag?!
