Expanding State Micromanagement of Business Algorithms

Description

This bill creates a new regulatory scheme empowering the state to police how businesses use pricing algorithms and coordinate competitive behavior, inviting aggressive bureaucratic intervention into private-sector technology decisions. This bill risks chilling innovation and saddling employers with vague, open-ended compliance burdens. CPAC opposes this expansion of regulatory overreach into private enterprise and opposed this bill. The Senate passed this bill on 2025-06-03 by a vote of 29-10. The bill did not become law.
