The FTC’s New Final Rule Banning Non-Competes
June 25, 2024
On April 23, 2024, the FTC announced a much-anticipated final rule
banning noncompete clauses nationwide. The Rule provides that noncompetes violate the FTC Act Section 5, citing concerns about harm to competitive conditions in labor, product, and service markets. It comprehensively bans new noncompetes for all workers and retroactively invalidates existing noncompetes for all workers except senior executives. The FTC drew its authority from the FTC Act Section 6(g). Both before and after its promulgation, the Rule has attracted extensive commentary and debate. This webinar explores whether the Rule is likely to effectively promote competition and benefit workers and whether it is a valid exercise of FTC rulemaking authority.

State Enforcement in the New Antitrust Paradigm
April 7, 2023
Recent years have witnessed the emergence of compelling--and deeply contested-- new theories in antitrust law and policy, embraced on both the left and the right of the political spectrum in the United States. Alongside that substantive revolution is the rise of a vibrant enforcement community, not only among the federal antitrust agencies but also among state attorneys general and private plaintiffs. Whereas antitrust enforcement a generation ago may have largely been a story unfolding in Washington, it now plays out in earnest around the country, a result of the U.S. federal system.
