H.R.5226

Deceptive Downsizing Prohibition Act of 2025 aims to prevent manufacturers from reducing product sizes without changing packaging.

The Deceptive Downsizing Prohibition Act of 2025 seeks to protect consumers by prohibiting manufacturers from selling consumer products of reduced size while using packaging designed for larger sizes. The act defines "deceptive downsizing" as the practice of reducing product size without altering the packaging, which can mislead consumers about the product's size. The Federal Trade Commission is tasked with enforcing this prohibition and can promulgate necessary regulations. Violations are treated as unfair or deceptive acts under the Federal Trade Commission Act.
