The U.S. House of Representatives Judiciary Committee proposed transferring the Federal Trade Commission's antitrust work to the Department of Justice on Monday, April 28.
This proposal is part of a budget reconciliation package and would allocate funds for moving staff and cases from the FTC to the DOJ.
The proposal echoes a Republican bill aimed at consolidating all federal antitrust work into one agency, though its success in the budget reconciliation process remains uncertain.
