This joint resolution seeks to exercise congressional authority under the Congressional Review Act to reject a recent rule from the Federal Trade Commission (FTC). Specifically, it targets the FTC's rule titled "Premerger Notification; Reporting and Waiting Period Requirements" , which was published in the Federal Register on November 12, 2024. By passing this resolution, Congress would formally disapprove of the FTC's rule, rendering it without any legal force or effect. This action would prevent the implementation of the new requirements for premerger reporting and waiting periods as outlined by the FTC.
