Bill Summary
A BILL To codify the Federal Trade Commission’s negative option rule.
AI Summary
This bill codifies the Federal Trade Commission's (FTC) negative option rule, which means it will turn the existing FTC regulation into official law. A negative option rule typically governs subscription-based services where consumers are automatically enrolled and continue to be billed unless they take specific action to cancel. By giving this regulation the "force and effect of law" as of July 7, 2025, the bill ensures that the current FTC regulation becomes a legally binding statute, which could provide stronger consumer protections and make the rule more difficult to change without congressional action. The bill is titled the "Click to Cancel Consumer Protection Act of 2025," suggesting its intent is to make it easier for consumers to cancel recurring subscriptions or memberships.
