Federal Trade Commission Chairwoman Lina Khan is under fire for allegedly colluding with foreign regulators to cramp American businesses with rules crafted by European officials.
“Your agency’s collusion with foreign governments not only undermines U.S. sovereignty and Congress’s constitutional lawmaking authority, but also damages the competitiveness of U.S. firms and could negatively affect the savings of millions of Americans who hold stock in those companies via retirement savings accounts and pension plans,” Mr. Cruz wrote.
Rep. Kevin Kiley, California Republican, questioned Ms. Khan last month about whether she was intentionally picking losing legal fights to create the appearance of insufficient laws.
“You’re actually bringing the cases,” Mr. Kiley said at a House Judiciary Committee hearing. “You’re losing because you don’t have the authority that you want from Congress, so this is how you think you’re going to persuade Congress to give you more authority — is by exceeding the authority that you now have?”
