Referred to the Committee on Energy and Commerce, and in addition to the Committees on the Judiciary, and Education and Workforce, for a period to be subsequently determined by the Speaker, in each case for consideration of such provisions as fall within the jurisdiction of the committee concerned.
H.R. 4640, the Stop AI Price Gouging and Wage Fixing Act of 2025, prohibits companies from using artificial intelligence and surveillance data to set personalized prices or wages tailored to individual consumers or workers. The law allows narrow exceptions for cost-based pricing differences, publicly disclosed group discounts, and loyalty programs, but requires companies to disclose their pricing and wage-setting procedures 180 days in advance and permit individuals to challenge the accuracy of data used against them. Enforcement is shared among the Federal Trade Commission, Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, state attorneys general, and workers and consumers who can file private lawsuits for violations, with penalties ranging from $3,000 per violation up to triple damages for willful violations. The bill also voids arbitration agreements and class-action waivers that would prevent workers from challenging wage violations and ensures collective bargaining rights remain a minimum standard that unions can only improve through negotiation.
