Antitrust Federalism: Enhancing the Federal-State Relationship

Antitrust Federalism: Enhancing the Federal-State Relationship
Wednesday, Oct.
7, 2009, 9 a.m. - 12:30 p.m.
“Antitrust Federalism: Enhancing
the Federal-State Relationship,” a conference that will outline new
measures the government is taking to strengthen its antitrust laws, and how
agencies can collaborate more effectively in joint law enforcement efforts
under the Obama administration. In the past, federal and state officials had a
contentious relationship, resulting in missed opportunities to make antitrust
enforcement more efficient and effective. Now, at a time when resources are at
a premium, there is a greater need for state and federal governments to
cooperate with each other and coordinate efforts.
The conference is being hosted by the Columbia Law
School National State Attorneys General Program and the National Association of
Attorneys General (NAAG).
