FEATURING INDIVAR DUTTA-GUPTA - Federal Trade Commission chair Lina Khan’s tenure under Joe Biden has had a powerful victory with the recent failed merger between two mega grocery chains, Kroger and Albertsons. A U.S. district court in December 2024 granted the FTC’s request for an injunction to stop what would have been the largest grocery merger in the nation’s history.
Ms. Khan emerged as one of the most pro-public-interest FTC chairs in recent memory. Although she has not yet resigned, incoming President Donald Trump has already picked her replacement, FTC Commissioner Andrew Ferguson, who is likely to go easy on businesses and focus on what he calls “free speech” issues.
