Strongly agree

o, this would create a ridiculous government bureaucracy to police the size of chip bags

Strongly agree

es, but just require a 'New Smaller Size' label for six months after a change

A temporary ‘new smaller size’ label is a targeted disclosure remedy—consumer protection via transparency without banning business practices—well aligned with No Labels’ centrist style.

Agree

No, companies must be free to adjust product sizes to manage their own rising costs

Emphasizing flexibility for firms to manage costs fits No Labels’ market-oriented instincts and reluctance to micromanage business decisions.

Agree

Yes, and require clear price per unit labeling so any size change is immediately obvious

No Labels is more likely to back transparency/consumer-information fixes than bans; clearer unit pricing is a light-touch disclosure approach consistent with centrist governance.

Agree

No

A default ‘no ban’ stance aligns with No Labels’ pro-business, anti-red-tape posture, though they may still support targeted consumer-disclosure rules rather than doing nothing.

Slightly agree

No, it's better than raising the sticker price, which can hurt families on a tight budget

They could accept the argument that shrinkflation can be less jarring than sticker-price hikes, but would likely still prefer transparency so consumers can compare value.

Slightly disagree

Yes, shrinkflation is a sneaky way for corporations to hide inflation and mislead shoppers

While No Labels would sympathize with consumers, framing it as corporations being ‘sneaky’ and justifying a ban is more populist than their typical bipartisan, pro-market approach.

Disagree

Yes

No Labels generally favors market-based solutions and limited new regulation; a blanket ban on shrinkflation reads as heavy-handed price/packaging control rather than centrist consumer transparency.
