Commissar SFLUFAN Posted August 21 Share Posted August 21 Further update from the courts: OLOLOLOLOLOLOLO Judge Blocks F.T.C.’s Noncompete Rule - The New York Times WWW.NYTIMES.COM The Federal Trade Commission was deemed to lack the authority to bar companies from restricting their employees’ ability to go to work for rivals. Quote A federal judge on Tuesday upheld a challenge to the Federal Trade Commission’s ban on noncompete agreements, blocking it from taking effect in September as scheduled. Judge Ada Brown of U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Texas ruled that the antitrust agency lacked authority to issue substantive rules related to unfair methods of competition, including the noncompete rule, which would have prohibited companies from restricting their employees’ ability to work for rivals. The push to adopt the rule is part of the Biden administration’s effort to crack down on practices that regulators argue are anticompetitive, unfairly constraining workers. Judge Brown had temporarily blocked the ban in July. Her decision on Tuesday renders that injunction permanent, and nationwide in scope.

Spawn_of_Apathy Posted August 21 Share Posted August 21 Even before I came in here I knew it was the northern district of Texas. Fucking pathetic. land of the free, except companies are allowed to own people and control their lives after they’ve left. I wish a painful and slow death upon any conservative even affiliated with the norther district of Texas. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

legend Posted August 21 Share Posted August 21 It's wild to me that Republicans have become the "put your boot on my face" party while still somehow deluding themselves that they're the party for freedom. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freedom to them is guns and not letting “freaks” live open lives. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
