Cal-Maine, the dominant egg producer, wants to use the monopoly profits it has extracted though inflated egg prices to buy a breakfast food manufacturer. This is a merger that should be blocked. https://t.co/Sew47an2Th
New research shows that mergers are increasing the market power of agricultural firms, driving up prices, reducing exports, and increasing imports in the agricultural sector.

I reviewed Professor Leslie's excellent article "Pharmacy deserts and Antitrust law". My essay illustrates the racial & health disparities pharmacy deserts cause. It also explains why telemedicine fails to cure them. Thank you @BULawReview :
Elizabeth Wilkins is amazing. She played an absolutely central role in Lina Khan's FTC (actually, multiple leadership roles simultaneously, so make that plural) and is brilliant, forward thinking, engaged, just awesome.
Excited and honored to be taking the helm at Roosevelt Institute. Our economy should work for the many, not just the few. The Roosevelt community has been instrumental in the fight for shared prosperity, and I can't wait to jump back in in this new capacity. Let's get to work!

1. The conventional explanations for food deserts—that these places are too poor or too rural to generate enough spending on groceries, or too Black to overcome racist corporate redlining—fail to grapple with a key fact: food deserts didn’t used to exist. https://t.co/bTWm0rPJ6e
“In 2022 and 2023, we saw record-high egg prices. Now, according to Farm Action, this price increase was because dominant egg producers used inflation and avian flu as cover to extract profit margins as high as — wait for it — 40 percent on a dozen eggs.”
This is an incredible article about Mayor Pete, Tim Wu, flying, government, how ideas change lives.
Seriously: put aside 20 minutes, get a cup of coffee, and learn about the antitrust revolution in action.

I look forward to presenting my new project Pro-Feminist Health Antitrust at the antitrust conference organized by @BYULaw. My work explores the antitrust dimension of the maternal mortality crisis in the US which disproportionately harms black women.

In my new paper in @CompPolicyInt, I argue that refusals to deal operate as an anti-coercion mechanism, preventing corporations from forcing dependent firms to comply with their unilateral demands, & I explain why this principle needs to be revived.

McBurney writes that under the Georgia Constitution, strict scrutiny applies to abortion regulations. He effectively describes Georgia abortion law as treating women like "collectively owned community property."
