  • The state of Oregon has passed one of the most robust Right To Repair bills yet.
  • The new law requires electronics manufacturers to supply parts, tools, documentation, and software available for electronics produced as far back as 2015.
  • It also bans the restrictive practice of parts pairing used by companies like Apple.

Oregon passed a landmark Right To Repair law that goes beyond similar laws passed in California, Minnesota, and New York. For everything except smartphones, the new law requires manufacturers to make parts, tools, documentation, and software available for electronics produced as far back as 2015. That means laptops, smartwatches, tablets, refrigerators, and more are covered under the law, even if they date back to 2015.
