All too often, airlines make passengers navigate a bureaucratic maze of corporate red tape just to get their money back when flights are cancelled or significantly delayed. Thanks to @USDOT's new rule, airlines will be obliged to automatically pay up.

Jake Tapper had FTC Chair Lina Khan on to talk about the noncompete ban, and had to ask if his own noncompete was no longer valid. Khan says that when the ban takes effect, not only will new noncompetes be banned, but clauses like his will be rendered null and void.
Today at @LoyolaLaw I talked about a group of Irish American can labelers from Chicago, and two meat processing workers in Arkansas, and why it is so important that we stop mergers that hurt workers. ftc.gov/news-events/ne…

This is a major win for workers. Noncompetes have dragged wages down and stifled innovation for far too long. This announcement will unlock new opportunities for workers across the country.

Non-compete agreements are used by employers to force workers to stay with their companies. It hurts workers, stifles competition and makes our economy less dynamic. This rule empowers American workers and will build a stronger economy for millions of families.

Today, the @FTC finalized a rule restricting companies from imposing non-compete clauses in worker contracts. This is a major step that will help millions of people enjoy greater liberty in their professional lives. ftc.gov/news-events/ne…
"How people experience freedom in their day-to-day lives often involves their economic relationships...[T]he expansion of noncompete clauses locks workers into existing jobs." From my interview with @linakhanFTC, whose FTC just banned noncompetes. the.ink/p/lina-khan-ft…
One of the key staff architects of the FTC’s rule banning noncompetes is Hannah Garden-Monheit. Check out her interview below 👀

FTC Chair Lina Khan defends the agency’s decision to ban noncompete clauses for U.S. workers: "Getting rid of noncompetes will be good for workers...but it's also going to be good for our economy." cnb.cx/4bbNrcK
Too many workers can’t make progress in their careers and take jobs with better pay and benefits because of restrictive noncompete clauses. This new rule from the FTC will ban these restrictions and give workers the freedom to seek and move in to better jobs.

The @FTC’s new rule banning noncompete agreements is good for workers and all Americans as it will encourage free and fair competition. Last year, I filed HB 812 to tackle this issue at the state level. Here in NC, I’ll continue to fight for an economy that works for all. #ncpol
A huge victory for workers. Thanks to the @FTC & @linakhanFTC, 30 million Americans will have the freedom to change jobs and receive better wages.

.@FTC voting to ban noncompete clauses for workers. Chair @linakhanFTC weighed in: "It's going to mean that if somebody has a good idea, they're able to bring that idea to market rather than being locked up."

In fact, people with money and power in both parties agree on a lot of basic questions about how our society looks. Their areas of agreement are often deliberately obfuscated because of what it suggests about the nature of how politics in our society works.
Worlds colliding: my parents from rural Iowa texted me out of the blue last night to say they're planning to drive ~1.5 hours today to see @FTC Chair Lina Khan at a listening event with farmers in Ames.
F Scott Fitzgerald's idea that "American lives don't have second acts" seems largely correct:
"A person's life at 40 isn't the sum of most decisions. It is skewed by a disproportionately important few...Get these wrong and the scope for retrieving the situation is, if not zero, then overblown by a culture that struggles to impart bad news." Ganesh: ft.com/content/fa1a57…
So cool! We're thrilled to be involved.
So great to visit Direct Tire in Watertown, MA to discuss how repair restrictions inflate costs for consumers and tilt the playing field against independent repair shops. @FTC will keep fighting to promote fair competition and protect Americans’ right to repair their products.
Defeating these motions to dismiss was a major victory for Minnesota farmers. Now, we're one step closer to stopping Syngenta and Corteva from hurting farmers by illegally stifling competition and keeping pesticide prices high. Proud to be in this fight with you, @linakhanFTC!
On Friday, @FTC & 12 states won against pesticide makers Syngenta and Corteva, defeating their motion to dismiss our lawsuit. We'll keep fighting to protect Americans from illegal tactics that block generics & inflate prices for farmers and the public. fingfx.thomsonreuters.com/gfx/legaldocs/…
I’m glad the FTC is taking this critical action against Rite Aid’s biased use of facial recognition technologies. We must stop the increased proliferation of invasive and discriminatory algorithms in our society, especially when they are used to target communities of color.
Today @FTC took action against Rite Aid for recklessly using facial recognition tools, leading to innocent people being wrongly accused of shoplifting. Our order prohibits the firm from using facial surveillance tools for 5 years, among other protections. ftc.gov/news-events/ne…
This AI facial recognition tech used by rite aid was falsely tagging women and minorities as shoplifters. Unregulated tech in the marketplace will exacerbate discriminatory practices. Well done by @linakhanFTC and @FTC
Rite Aid banned from using AI facial recognition after FTC says retailer deployed technology without reasonable safeguards: bit.ly/3GWKcsB
Today is my last day at @FTC. It has been an honor to work with @linakhanFTC - a visionary leader with incredible dedication to our mission to protect the public from unfairness and deception in the marketplace and promote economic liberty for consumers, workers, and businesses.

Such a blast having @linakhanFTC on Odd Lots. Obviously her agency's pursuit of Big Tech has grabbed most of the attention. But in areas like healthcare consolidation, there's potentially tons of low hanging fruit that could directly affect consumers.

ASU Law thanks the @FTC and @linakhanFTC for visiting @ASUCollegeOfLaw and inspiring the next generation of lawyers and thought leaders in antitrust.
Junk fees deceive consumers and raise prices. Today, @POTUS and the @FTC are taking action to end surprise fees. 👏🏻 It was great to be at the White House to celebrate this win for consumers.
1. Junk fees cheat American families out of tens of billions of dollars and stack the deck against honest businesses. Today @FTC is proposing a rule that would ban these junk fees. ftc.gov/news-events/ne…
1/ My utmost heartfelt gratitude to @linakhanFTC @RKSlaughterFTC @alvarombedoya and everyone at the @FTC for organizing and having this important discussion on Generative AI and its impact on the Creative Economies. A heartfelt thank you to all my fellow panelists as well!
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 for today’s panel on creative workers & AI @alvarombedoya @linakhanFTC @RKSlaughterFTC. I’ve worked in DC policy circles for 35 years, & can’t recall a government agency ever assembling such a group. Individual creatives are used to being invisible. You gave them a voice.
@MarielzaTalks @FTC @wbm312 @zephoria This program is amazing. I hope the FTC will make it available on its site. Fascinating how everyone comes back to Consent, Control, Compensation & Transparency. I love how everyone has reinforced that they’re not anti-AI, they’re anti-exploitation. Kudos to @linakhanFTC & team!
I applaud the FTC for bringing this lawsuit against Amazon. The company is a poster child for the massive concentration of ownership in sector after sector that fills the pockets of shareholders and forces Americans to pay higher prices. It’s time to break up Big Tech monopolies.
1. Today @FTC and 17 state AGs filed a lawsuit detailing how Amazon uses punitive & coercive tactics to unlawfully maintain its monopolies. Amazon is exploiting its monopoly power to enrich itself while raising prices & degrading service for its customers. ftc.gov/news-events/ne…
Today was a big day in the fight to reign in Big Tech. The @FTC announced a landmark lawsuit against Amazon's monopolist practices that harm consumers by raising prices and decreasing choices.
