S.2642

Establishes the Price Tags Act to protect Rhode Island consumers from coercive tactics at grocery stores.

The Price Tags Act creates a new chapter to protect Rhode Island consumers from coercive tactics at grocery stores. It prohibits covered suppliers from failing to extend the same terms of sale to all covered retailers and wholesalers. The act defines terms such as "covered goods," "covered retailer," "covered supplier," and "dominant covered retailer." It also outlines enforcement mechanisms, including the ability for the attorney general or injured parties to file suit for injunctions and civil penalties. The act ensures that its provisions do not limit or impair antitrust laws.
