Lawmakers will rethink below-cost bill

摘要

A bill that would bring back below-cost selling in New Jersey needs more input, the State Assembly's Consumer Affairs Committee said after a recent public hearing. The bill, as introduced June 5 by Assemblyman John J. Burzichelli, would allow retailers to sell fuel at prices below their net cost - a practice that violates the current below-cost law. Independent dealers objected, calling the bill "a license for predators" to destroy them.
