Advocates Urge House Passage of Antitrust Package

The House should pass the Judiciary Committee’s antitrust legislative package, nearly 60 advocates wrote House leaders Thursday (see 2106240071). Public Citizen, the Center for Digital Democracy, Electronic Frontier Foundation, Open Markets Institute and Public Knowledge signed. “Monopoly power lowers wages, reduces innovation and entrepreneurship, exacerbates income and regional inequality, undermines the free press, and perpetuates toxic systems of racial, gender, and class dominance,” they wrote. “Big Tech monopolies are at the center of many of these problems.”
