## Summary

**Centralizes federal antitrust enforcement under the Attorney General and the DOJ Antitrust Division.** This bill would transfer primary antitrust authority, personnel, assets, funding, open investigations, and premerger filing responsibility from the Federal Trade Commission to the Department of Justice during a structured transition that begins at the start of the first fiscal year at least 90 days after enactment and lasts about one year with a possible single 180‑day extension. - FTC employees and operations: FTC antitrust staff, ongoing investigations, litigations, and related assets would be reassigned to the DOJ Antitrust Division. The Attorney General may deputize former FTC employees to finish pre‑effective‑date matters and DOJ will reimburse the FTC for office space during relocation. - Businesses and merger filers: Companies under antitrust review or merger scrutiny would shift to DOJ jurisdiction. Premerger notification filings would go to the Attorney General instead of the FTC, changing where firms submit reviews and who enforces Sherman Act and Clayton Act matters. - Interagency and international partners: The Attorney General would revise or transfer agreements and centralize rulemaking under the Clayton Act. Confidential business reports would remain protected but may be shared with state or foreign enforcers under specified conditions.
