Midterm Results Offer Right-to-Repair Advocates Their Strongest Opening for Federal Reform

Advocates for right-to-repair laws see the recent midterm elections as a favorable sign for their cause. The shifting political landscape has created what may be their best opportunity yet to push for meaningful reform at the federal level. Right-to-repair efforts aim to give consumers and independent technicians greater access to the tools, parts, and information needed to fix devices. The movement's prospects now depend on whether lawmakers take up the issue in the changed political environment.
