Why does every basic product now require a subscription?? Former FTC Chair Lina Khan says she received letters of support across the aisle for the "Click to Cancel" laws, which are now being postponed by the new administration. 😧

In New York Times Opinion “We’re up against a multi-decade drift away from using the levers of government and law enforcement to stand up for working people,” Lina Khan tells Ross Douthat on this week’s episode of “Interesting Times.” nyti.ms/4euOec1

You may have missed the Walmart fraud settlement quietly dropped Friday. But don’t miss the fine print: $10M, and the order vanishes in 3 years. FTC sued for permanent safeguards. This deal rewards Walmart and signals that firms can profit off fraud and walk away clean.

Congratulations to Zohran Kwame Mamdani on an incredible win and a courageous, principled campaign. People are hungry for a government that is relentlessly focused on improving their lives, even when it means standing up to corporate power and moneyed interests.

What is freedom? Are you really free if your groceries or medicine are so expensive that you can’t afford them? Or if your boss can change your work schedule on a whim or block you from getting a new job? Lina Khan explains how excessive corporate power makes us less free.

Under Lina Khan, FTC formally banned Made-in-USA fraud and obtained record-breaking judgments against violators. It’s good the new administration is talking the talk about strong enforcement. It’d be better if they brought some actual cases.

This week, the FTC might abandon its rule banning noncompete clauses, which trap workers and depress wages. That’s why I introduced the Workforce Mobility Act to ban them. I’m live with a worker trapped by noncompetes to hear his story. Tune in. x.com/i/broadcasts/1…

Over 16k Americans weighed in on the click-to-cancel rule, overwhelmingly supporting our effort to end subscription traps. The rule was set to go into effect in May but this FTC slow-walked it—and now a court has tossed it out, claiming industry didn’t get enough of a say.
