Underwriters Laboratory is a private company, not an agency of the
government. Submission of a product to U.L. is -entirely- voluntary. The
penalty for not doing so is the lack of a U.L. Seal of Approval and
this may backfire on you in a product liability lawsuit.

I didn't submit my lawn chairs to U.L. nor have I submitted my turned pens.

I think, if you are looking for truth in advertising / labeling, you'll
want to look to the Department of Commerce. Possibly under some law
there must be a declaration of the electrical characteristics of the
motor but submission to U.L. is, was, and likely always will be, voluntary.
