Bill overview
This bill aims to prevent businesses from significantly raising prices on essential goods and services during declared states of emergency. It expands existing laws to specifically prohibit price gouging for items like food, emergency supplies, medical goods, heating oil, building materials, gasoline, and housing rentals. The bill requires state and local prosecutors to work together to enforce these regulations, and it ensures that local agencies will be reimbursed for any costs associated with implementing the law.
