Under the leadership of Lina Khan, the outgoing chair of the Federal Trade Commission (FTC), the agency took on a more active antitrust and consumer protection role, which was largely successful and sometimes controversial.  

On January 8, Governance Studies at Brookings hosted a fireside chat between FTC Chair Lina Khan and Brookings Visiting Fellow Bill Baer, who discussed the FTC’s accomplishments, challenges, and its future under new leadership.
