Even the "active and passed" states (particularly New York) passed a neutered version of right-to-repair that barely does anything. I only understand vaguely, but Louis Rossman has been outspoken about the progress of NY right-to-repair in particular, and how it flopped hard. As much as right-to-repair seems like a party line issue, even many of the Democrats have thus far been all talk and no substance.

How much less do you think it takes to sway a state level candidate? Spending cash on candidates to prevent bills like this is likely a rounding error on their yearly budget.
