Plain-English Summary

This bill would prevent contractors and companies from charging excessive prices for emergency supplies and repair services in the aftermath of natural disasters and other emergencies. It aims to protect disaster victims and communities from price gouging by establishing penalties for businesses that dramatically raise prices on essential goods and services when people are most vulnerable and desperate. The legislation would give federal emergency management authorities tools to monitor and enforce fair pricing during disaster recovery periods.
