Bill > H206

This bill, titled "To Ensure Fairness and Competition for Consumers," aims to regulate the retail sale of gasoline by preventing certain businesses from selling gasoline below their cost when partnered with grocery stores, retail stores, or wholesale clubs. Specifically, it defines "retail dealer" as anyone selling motor fuel or lubricating oil for vehicles and "motor fuel" as petroleum distillates or other liquids used to power internal combustion engines. The core provision prohibits a retail dealer from coordinating with a grocery store, retail store, or wholesale club to offer discounts, promotions, coupons, or rebates that result in the price of gasoline per gallon falling below the dealer's cost. However, it allows grocery stores, retail stores, or wholesale clubs to offer discounts on their own retail purchases if those discounts are a direct result of a customer buying gasoline.
