Rep. Josh Harder urges the FTC to address hidden fees from online retailers contributing to price gouging for consumers.
Quiver AI Summary
Rep. Josh Harder is advocating for the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) to address hidden fees charged by online retailers. In a letter to FTC Commissioner Andrew Ferguson, he calls for the inclusion of more retailers in the existing rules banning such fees, which currently only apply to live ticketing and short-term lodging.
Harder highlights that prices are rising—up nearly 3% over the past year—while household incomes are struggling to keep pace. He asserts that these hidden fees contribute to financial strain on families.
In his letter, Harder urges the FTC to enhance transparency and close loopholes that allow retailers to impose service and return fees. He states, “Hidden fees are out of control,” stressing the need for regulation to protect consumers from excessive charges.
