Lina Khan is set to resign from her position at the U.S. Federal Trade Commission in the next few weeks, according to a memo she shared with her staff. During Khan's tenure, the FTC fined H&R Block $7 million for misleading consumers with false claims about free tax filing, with the intent of safeguarding consumers' interests. Challenges surfaced at the FTC under Khan's leadership due to court decisions impacting its regulatory plans, such as restrictions on noncompete agreements. The anticipated influence of Trump-appointed Andrew Ferguson suggests a forthcoming change in the FTC's stance on mergers, possibly resulting in reduced regulatory burdens for businesses.
