Pass the End Rent Fixing Act

The Justice Department's RealPage settlement had no fine and left the software on the market.

The Letter

Subject Cosponsor the End Rent Fixing Act

I am asking you to cosponsor the End Rent Fixing Act, which Senators Wyden and Welch and Representative Balint introduced in November 2025.

The Justice Department sued RealPage over software that let competing landlords set rents using each other's private data. In November 2025 it settled. RealPage paid no fine, admitted no wrongdoing, and can keep selling pricing software, as long as it stops feeding competitors' nonpublic data into rent recommendations for seven years.

A settlement with one company does not settle the practice. California, New York, and Connecticut have passed their own bans, but renters in most states have no such protection.

Please cosponsor the End Rent Fixing Act so that using an algorithm to coordinate rents is illegal nationwide.
