Positive Legislative Antitrust Agenda for Congress and the New Biden Administration

The link below is to a letter prepared by a coalition of former federal antitrust enforcers and antitrust scholars, which was sent to the members of the Senate and House Committees that have jurisdiction over the Department of Justice’s and Federal Trade Commission’s antitrust missions. The letter sets out a Positive Legislative Agenda for the nation’s competition policy, which should also serve as guidance to the new Biden Administration antitrust enforcers. Ashley Baker of the Alliance on Antitrust was the principal drafter of the letter.  I am a signatory.  I encourage the reader of this post to read the letter in its entirety.  TAG
