S 4412 United States Senate · 118th Congress

STOP Bad Mergers Act

This bill requires the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) and Department of Justice (DOJ) to monitor completed mergers for anti-competitive effects or harm to workers. It mandates new labor-related data in merger filings, including details about unionized employees, potential job losses, and offshoring risks. Unions representing affected workers gain the right to submit information to regulators about proposed mergers that could harm their members. The bill also directs studies on how mergers impact manufacturing industry competition, unionized workforces, and worker bargaining power.
