Plain-English Summary
The legislation would prohibit companies from reducing product sizes or quantities while keeping prices the same or raising them, a practice known as "shrinkflation." Consumers would be protected from deceptive packaging that makes it appear they're getting the same amount of product when they're actually getting less. Companies that violate these rules could face penalties, affecting how manufacturers price and package goods on store shelves.
