Enact the Digital Fair Repair Act to ensure manufacturers provide necessary documentation, parts, and tools for digital electronic equipment repair.

The Digital Fair Repair Act mandates that original equipment manufacturers must provide documentation, parts, and tools for the diagnosis, maintenance, or repair of digital electronic equipment to independent repair providers and equipment owners. These resources must be made available on fair and reasonable terms. The act prohibits manufacturers from using parts pairing or other mechanisms to prevent the installation or functioning of non-manufacturer approved parts. It also ensures that manufacturers cannot be held liable for damages caused during repairs by independent providers or owners.
