FTC Rulemaking Pursuant to Biden’s Executive Order and Beyond: What is Settled, Not Settled, and What to Expect Going Forward
Webinar | 09.01.21, 10:00 AM EDT - 11:00 AM EDT
On July 13, President Biden signed the sweeping Executive Order on Promoting Competition in the American Economy, which contained 72 directives to multiple federal agencies aimed at establishing a “whole-of-government” effort to promote competition across broad swaths of the American economy. Many recommendations within that Executive Order called upon the FTC to issue new rules relating to consumer protection, privacy, and competition issues. Even before the Executive Order, several Commissioners and other commentators were calling upon the FTC to exercise its rarely-used independent rulemaking authority to issue new rules to address a broad range of issues.
This webinar will focus on how the FTC and other federal agencies may seek to implement these recommendations and directives to engage in new rulemaking. It will focus on the scope of FTC’s rulemaking authority and the rulemaking process, opportunities companies may have to participate in the rulemaking process, and how to prepare for the challenges new FTC rules may create.
