That’s why I’m proudly introducing new bipartisan legislation, the No Rigged Grocery Prices Act, so that AI isn’t allowed to jack up the prices you pay for groceries when you go to the store or have them delivered at home.
I will introduce bipartisan legislation to ban AI surveillance pricing at grocery stores and third-party grocery delivery platforms, including clear disclosure requirements and limits on individualized pricing from personal data.
Occurrences
Introduced the bipartisan No Rigged Grocery Prices Act with Rep. Lawler (NY-17). It bans surveillance pricing in grocery stores and on third-party delivery services while implementing other commonsense consumer protections around substitutions and disclosures.

Assessments
By June 12, 2026, there is no clear evidence that Josh Gottheimer introduced the promised bipartisan federal bill targeting AI or surveillance pricing at grocery stores and third-party grocery delivery platforms with the specified disclosure and individualized-pricing limits. The available evidence confirms the policy problem exists and shows related action by other officials, including federal bills led by other members and state/local proposals, but not a Gottheimer-led introduction matching this promise. Because the promise was specifically to introduce legislation, and the record reviewed does not show that he did so, this is best scored as not delivered rather than partial.
