Bill > SB6276

This bill aims to broaden access to the information and tools necessary to repair digital electronic products, including computers, cell phones, appliances, agricultural equipment, and powered wheelchairs, in a safe, secure, and reliable manner. The bill requires original manufacturers to make available to independent repair providers and owners, on fair and reasonable terms, any parts, tools, and documentation required for the diagnosis, maintenance, or repair of such products. The bill also includes provisions to protect customer privacy and security during the repair process, and exempts certain types of products and manufacturers from the requirements. The bill is intended to increase access to affordable digital electronic products, support small businesses and jobs, and make it easier for all residents of Washington state to connect digitally.
