Considerations for Supply Chain Businesses -

In response to the current pandemic, state attorneys general are actively pursuing price gouging cases across the supply chain. The sudden rise in price gouging cases and the unprecedented nature of the COVID-19 crisis have likely raised new questions for many businesses, whether due to unfamiliarity with price gouging laws and compliance, the rapidly changing nature of the crisis and accompanying state executive orders, or any number of other reasons.

State officials continue to issue new requirements and guidance. To help monitor these requirements across the dozens of different states, we have created this reference guide, which compiles some of the major state laws and orders on price gouging by state.
