PACK Act
The PACK Act aims to amend the Federal Trade Commission Act to regulate claims about the recyclability, compostability, and reusability of consumer product packaging. It establishes clear guidelines for such claims, mandates third-party certification, and prohibits deceptive practices. The bill emphasizes transparency and consumer protection but lacks detailed fiscal analysis and enforcement mechanisms.
