Reducing Regulatory Barriers: The Future of Market Competition
June 13, 2025 at 12:00 PM EST
On April 9th, President Trump signed E.O. 14267, Reducing Anti-Competitive Regulatory Barriers, which “commences the process for eliminating anti-competitive regulations to revitalize the American economy.” The order instructs the agency heads to review all regulations that may stifle economic competition or impose restraints on the free market. Many applaud the order, arguing that it addresses an overburdened economy, while others question the necessity of government regulation for ensuring a fair and just market.
What does President Trump’s order mean for the future of the economy and the laws that regulate it?
