Conservative leaders sent a letter to Senate Commerce Committee Chairman Ted Cruz, urging him to expedite the confirmation of Federal Trade Commission (FTC) nominee Mark Meador. They argue that Meador will be a strong advocate for antitrust and consumer protection enforcement, aligning with President Trump's agenda of combating what they perceive as harmful corporate policies and protecting American children.
Conservative leaders on Monday wrote to Senate Commerce Committee Chairman Ted Cruz , urging Congress to confirm Federal Trade Commission Commissioner nominee Mark Meador , who will be a strong advocate for “strong, yet targeted” antitrust and consumer protection enforcement.
The conservatives wrote that confirming Meador, a visiting fellow at the Heritage Foundation who served as Sen. Mike Lee’s deputy chief counsel for antitrust and competition policy, is essential to realizing Trump’s goal of removing the malign influence of diversity, equity, and inclusion as well as environment, social, and governance corporate policies from unduly influencing America’s children.
