Antitrust Division of the U.S. DOJ

The Antitrust Division of the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) is responsible for enforcing laws that promote competition and prevent monopolies in the marketplace. Its goal is to ensure that businesses compete fairly, which helps to protect consumers from high prices, poor service, and limited choices. The division investigates mergers and business practices that may harm competition, and it takes legal action against companies that violate antitrust laws. By doing so, the Antitrust Division aims to foster a healthy economy where innovation and consumer welfare can thrive.
