Stop anticompetitive consumer goods mergers
Litigation

Regulatory & Legal Action

Support the FTC’s lawsuit and ensure it has the resources and political backing to go the distance.

Strengthen the FTC’s lawsuit with credible evidence, expert support, and coordinated briefs that clarify the competitive harm and the remedy sought. Align contractors, consumer advocates, and other validators around the core claim that head-to-head rivalry matters in construction adhesives. This is most urgent while the case is active and a permanent injunction is still on the table.

Why this works

If the FTC prevails, the merger is blocked – a definitive win. A court judgment in favor of the FTC also strengthens precedent for future merger challenges.
