The Federal Trade Commission

1. The FTC banned employers from using noncompete contracts to prevent most=
workers from joining rival firms.
The measure, approved by the agency=E2=80=99s Democratic majority on a 3-to=
-2 vote, marks the first time in more than 50 years that FTC officials have=
issued a regulation to mandate an economywide change in how companies com=
pete =
(=F0=9F=94=90 read fo=
r free). The Biden administration pushed for a regulatory assault on noncom=
petes in 2021, when the White House issued a blueprint for stricter enforce=
ment of antitrust laws. The FTC=E2=80=99s final rule becomes effective in f=
our months. The U.S. Chamber of Commerce plans to sue the agency as soon as=
Wednesday over the rule. The suit would argue that the FTC lacks the legal=
authority to issue the rule and would ask a federal court to invalidate it=
, Chamber officials said this week.
