Zone pricing harms consumers by reducing competition.
His legislation will eliminate price d iscrimination by major oil companies and increase competition, which will lower prices to consumers. Prohibit price discrimination by big oil companies by requiring them to sell their gasoline to all distributors and retailers at the same price. Volume discounts would still be allowed. Require that any discounts or incentives and the qualifications for such discounts or incentives are disclosed to all retailer and distributor customers of the wholesaler. Require that all sales invoices include the base sale price and any additional charges so that the actual price of gasoline may be monitored.
