Bill > HR2926

This bill, titled the "One Agency Act", proposes to transfer all antitrust enforcement functions, employees, assets, and funding from the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) to the Department of Justice (DOJ). The bill finds that the overlapping antitrust jurisdiction between the DOJ and FTC has wasted taxpayer resources and caused uncertainty, and that the DOJ is best suited to be the sole federal agency responsible for enforcing the antitrust laws. The bill provides a transition period for the transfer of personnel and cases, and requires the DOJ to assume authority over all existing FTC antitrust actions and consent decrees. The bill also removes the authority of the Federal Communications Commission and state entities to review the competitive impact of certain communications-related transactions, making the DOJ solely responsible for such reviews under the antitrust laws.
