AAI’s Diana Moss Discusses Advancing a New Era of Antitrust at the ACS National Convention

AAI’s Diana Moss spoke at the American Constitution Society’s 2023 National Convention on May 29, 2023. Moss discussed how the appointment of progressive leaders to DOJ and FTC presents a chance to reinvigorate trust-busting efforts and reshape antitrust policies in the context of reviving regulated industries. From the panel, entitled “Advancing a New Era of Antitrust”:

Advancing a New Era of Antitrust

The nomination and confirmation of progressives to lead the Department of Justice Antitrust Division and the Federal Trade Commission have created the opportunity to revive the progressive tradition of trust busting. This opportunity arises within the context of renewed efforts now underway to resurrect the field of regulated industries, which decades of deregulation killed. How can progressive lawyers, law students, and law scholars take advantage of these opportunities to advance a new era of antitrust?
