I am writing to urge your support for the Stop AI Price Gouging and Wage Fixing Act of 2025, introduced by Representative Greg Casar. This groundbreaking legislation addresses a critical issue in our increasingly digital economy: the use of surveillance data for individualized pricing and wage-setting. As your constituent, I am deeply concerned about the exploitation of personal information by companies to manipulate prices and wages. This practice not only infringes on our privacy but also creates unfair economic disparities. The proposed bill strikes a balance by allowing for reasonable regional cost differences and broad group discounts while prohibiting the use of personal data for individual price targeting. The Federal Trade Commission's role in enforcing this law, along with the ability for states and private litigation to act, ensures robust protection for consumers and workers. Importantly, the bill prevents companies from using arbitration clauses to evade accountability, setting a strong federal standard that states can build upon. This legislation has the potential for bipartisan support due to its focus on privacy, civil liberties, and economic fairness. By supporting this bill, you would be taking a stand against predatory pricing practices and protecting the economic interests of your constituents. I urge you to co-sponsor the Stop AI Price Gouging and Wage Fixing Act of 2025 and work towards its swift passage. Your support would demonstrate a commitment to fairness in our economy and the protection of individual privacy in the digital age. Please take action on this crucial issue that affects the financial well-being of all Americans.
