Please join the Center for American Progress for an event with U.S. Secretary of Agriculture Tom Vilsack and Assistant Attorney General Jonathan Kanter where they will discuss how the Biden-Harris administration's actions are lowering costs, promoting fairer and more competitive markets, improving conditions for U.S. consumers and producers, and making the domestic food supply chain more robust and resilient. The Biden-Harris administration has used an all-of-government approach addressing the harms that increasing market concentration poses to consumers, workers, small businesses, farmers, and the overall state of the U.S. economy. The U.S. Department of Agriculture, in partnership with the U.S. Department of Justice and other agencies on the White House Competition Council, has taken many important actions to accomplish this goal. The administration’s agenda has aimed to foster fairer and more competitive markets through investments in processing and fertilizer capacity; modernizing and enforcing the rulebook against unfair, deceptive, and anticompetitive practices; and taking additional steps to promote transparency, market integrity, and the appropriate use of intellectual property such as in seeds.
