American Renewable Energy Act of 2021 This bill establishes an annual renewable energy standard for retail electricity suppliers through 2030.

Unsubscribe Act of 20 21 This bill requires that certain consumer protections are included in negative option agreements (i.e., an agreement under which a consumer's failure to take an affirmative action is considered approval to be charged for goods or services). These agreements are prohibited unless the terms provide the consumer with a way to cancel the agreement, in the same manner by which the agreement was entered, before incurring further or increased charges. Further, under free-to-pay conversion contracts, where a consumer is charged a nominal introductory rate and an increased rate after the introductory period ends, the provider of the good or service must require the consumer to perform an additional action, like clicking a confirmation button, before the increased rate takes effect. The bill also requires that certain notifications are provided to consumers in the context of other forms of negative option agreements online, such as notice between two and seven days before an automatic renewal. The bill provides for enforcement of these requirements by the Federal Trade Commission and state attorneys general.

This bill repeals the Authorization for Use of Military Force Against Iraq Resolution of 2002.
