Coalition Urges FTC to Uphold Consumer Protections and Market Integrity

NextGen Competition joins other public interest organizations call on the FTC to resist political pressure and preserve the agency’s ability to hold powerful corporations accountable.

May 27, 2025

In a joint letter to FTC Chairman Andrew Ferguson and Commissioners, a coalition of advocacy groups, including NextGen Competitio, expresses concern over efforts to weaken the agency’s regulatory authority and antitrust enforcement. The letter criticizes attempts to frame public protections as anti-competitive and highlights the growing threat of corporate impunity under the Trump Administration. The signers urge the FTC to reject deregulation driven by political favoritism and recommit to its core mission: protecting consumers, workers, and fair competition.
