AN ACT CONCERNING REVISIONS TO THE CONNECTICUT ANTITRUST ACT TO PROTECT AGAINST CORPORATE MERGERS THAT HARM COMPETITION AND CONSUMERS.

This bill updates Connecticut's antitrust law to adopt federal guidelines on business mergers. It authorizes Connecticut's Attorney General to investigate and challenge mergers that reduce competition or harm consumers. The change directly affects companies planning to merge within Connecticut, ensuring state enforcement aligns with federal standards to protect consumers from higher prices or fewer choices.
