Fair Competition for Small Business Act of 2025
The Fair Competition for Small Business Act of 2025 amends the Clayton Act to allow legal claims for violations of the Sherman Antitrust Act or for violations of the bill's own section (section 2). This technical change would directly affect small businesses and other entities involved in antitrust litigation by expanding the grounds for lawsuits under the Clayton Act. The key mechanism is a modification to the Clayton Act that references the bill's provisions, creating a new basis for claims. The bill does not specify additional substantive rules beyond this amendment.
