A BILL To amend the Federal Trade Commission Act to permit the Federal Trade Commission to enforce such Act against certain tax-exempt organizations.

AI Summary

This bill amends the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) Act to allow the FTC to enforce the Act against certain tax-exempt organizations, specifically those described in Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code that are exempt from federal income taxation under Section 501(a). The bill removes the previous exclusion of such tax-exempt organizations from the FTC's jurisdiction, thereby expanding the FTC's authority to investigate and take enforcement action against potential unfair or deceptive practices by these organizations.
