The Fair Competition for Small Business Act of 2025 amends federal antitrust law to allow state attorneys general to sue on behalf of their citizens for damages when businesses engage in illegal price discrimination. Specifically, the bill strengthens enforcement of the Robinson-Patman Act, which prohibits large companies from giving better prices to some buyers than others in ways that harm competition. This change affects small businesses and consumers by giving state officials a new tool to challenge discriminatory pricing practices that may disadvantage smaller competitors or increase costs for certain customers. The legislation does not include specific funding allocations or implementation timelines in the provided text. The bill was introduced in December 2025 and referred to the House Judiciary Committee for consideration.
