HB 6053 Connecticut House · 2025 Regular Session

AN ACT ENABLING CONSUMERS AND INDEPENDENT REPAIR PROVIDERS TO REPAIR CONSUMER ELECTRONICS.

HB 6053 would amend state law to allow consumers and independent repair shops to fix their own electronics without manufacturer restrictions. The bill requires manufacturers to provide necessary tools, parts, and repair information to both consumers and independent repair providers. This directly affects anyone who owns electronics (like phones or laptops) and small repair businesses that currently face barriers to servicing devices. The key change is making repair information and parts accessible, reducing reliance on manufacturer-authorized services. The bill focuses on enabling repair access, not on cost savings or environmental impact.
