Abstract

Pursuant to the President’s Executive Order 14267 regarding Reducing Anti-competitive Regulatory Barriers (April 9, 2025), the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) invites public comment on how federal regulations can harm competition in the American economy. Appropriately tailored economic regulations can play an important role in ensuring that markets function efficiently. Often, however, regulations become unnecessarily onerous. Rather than serving the American people, such regulations can operate to exclude new market entrants, protect dominant incumbents, and predetermine economic winners and losers. Regulations that have the effect of reducing competition, entrepreneurship, and innovation—and thereby holding back the American economy—should generally be eliminated or modified. FTC staff encourages members of the public—including consumers, workers, businesses, start-ups, potential market entrants, investors, and academics—to comment on any issues or concerns that are relevant to the FTC’s consideration of this objective.
