The Consumer Product Safety Commission—An Agency in Transition
Webinar | 03.30.21, 8:00 AM EDT - 9:00 AM EDT
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (“CPSC”) is in a state of transition. The Democrats will soon have a majority of commissioners. Acting Chairman Bob Adler has announced that he will not seek re-nomination when his current term ends later this year. The Division of Compliance and Field Operations has reorganized, and we have already seen two civil penalty matters announced in 2021, which is two more than the total number of civil penalties announced over the past two years.
In this webinar, we will offer thoughts and predictions about what to expect in the coming years as the Biden Administration takes hold, and continued change at the agency takes place.

The Third-Party Perspective: Protecting Payors’ Interests in Antitrust Investigations
The Trump administration has sharpened its focus on hospital systems as a key driver of rising health care costs, and the DOJ and FTC are actively patrolling for anticompetitive conduct and mergers that contribute to these rising costs. Managed care organizations are a critical source of evidence in these investigations and are likely to receive Civil Investigative Demands (CIDs), be contacted by agency staff, or may consider proactively engaging with antitrust authorities to address competitive concerns in their markets.
