The Robinson-Patman Act was passed in 1936 to strengthen the Clayton Act and address price discrimination, which many businesses were able to circumvent under the original rules. The act prohibits price discrimination that lessens competition, unless it can be justified on the basis of cost savings, and requires that sellers offer discounts to all customers on proportionally equal terms. The other options, the Federal Trade Commission Act, the Sherman Act, and the Miller-Tydings Act, are all important antitrust laws but do not specifically address price discrimination.
