Small Businesses applaud DOJ and FTC Announcement to Launch Transformational Effort to Restore Antimonopoly Merger Guidelines
January 18, 2021
On the FTC and DOJ announcement to restore antimonopoly merger guidelines, Main Street Alliance’s Director of Policy and Political Impact Didier Trinh had this to say:
“The trend in unabated mergers over the last few decades is how many large corporations have gone from simply large to monopolistic. Monopolies and corporate concentration have real impacts across the small business economy. As we hear from members, this has been an ongoing issue that is directly impacting small business bottom lines and competitiveness. Main Street Alliance applauds the FTC and DOJ for making a real investment to stem the flood of anti-competitive mergers. Antitrust regulation and enforcement is one place where we can look to build a more resilient and fair economy coming out of the pandemic.”
