MY DATA Act of 2025 Manage Your Data and Allow Only Trusted Access...
To prohibit covered entities from preventing the use of certain data by individuals, and for other purposes.
HB6043, also known as the MY DATA Act of 2025, aims to stop companies from blocking individuals from using their own data. This bill is designed to give people more control over their personal information and prevent businesses from unfairly limiting how individuals can access and use data they've generated themselves. This could affect anyone who uses digital services, including social media, online shopping, and more, by ensuring they can use their data as they see fit without corporate restrictions.
The MY DATA Act of 2025 was introduced on November 12, 2025, and was immediately referred to the House Committee on Energy and Commerce. As of now, it is in its very early stages and has not yet been reviewed or acted upon by any committee. This bill is currently being considered and could undergo changes or amendments in the future.
Key actions so far include its introduction and referral to a committee for further review. The next steps will likely involve committee meetings and discussions to determine whether the bill should be amended, passed, or rejected. If the committee approves the bill, it will move forward in the legislative process for additional review and potential voting.
