Antitrust Accountability and Transparency Act

This act increases oversight of antitrust settlements, giving citizens and state authorities more influence over legal proceedings against monopolies. It aims to prevent unfair market practices by making government negotiations with large corporations fully transparent.
Key points
Increased transparency: The government must disclose all side deals and offers made during negotiations with companies that were not included in the formal proposal.
Public input: Citizens who submit comments on settlements now have the right to reply to the government's published responses.
Merger freezes: Companies are required to keep their assets separate until the public review of their merger's impact on the market is complete.
State intervention: If the federal government decides to drop an antitrust case, State Attorneys General can step in and continue the lawsuit.
Contact tracking: All communications regarding antitrust cases with government officials, including the White House, must be documented and dated.
