MODERATE

This bill was amended to expand the number of sponsors and add committee reporting status. The substantive policy changes include renaming the section from 'Disclosure of pricing changes' to 'Disclosure of pricing policy', redefining key terms to clarify what constitutes an in-store versus online price, and simplifying the disclosure requirements from requiring specific product-by-product price differences to a general statement about whether online prices match in-store prices.

Scope change

The bill's scope remains focused on online grocery delivery and pick-up services, but the definitions were clarified to better distinguish between in-store and online pricing contexts.

REQUIREMENT

Changed the disclosure requirement from stating specific price differences for each product to simply disclosing whether online prices are the same as, higher than, or lower than in-store prices.

DEFINITION

Added new definitions for 'In store price' and 'Online price' to clarify what each term means for compliance purposes.

Renamed 'Grocery store' to 'Food retailer' in the definitions section to broaden the terminology.

TECHNICAL

Added co-sponsors (Senators FAHY, MAY, WEBB) and updated legislative history to reflect favorable committee report and passage by the Senate.
