As a parallel, push states to use their antitrust laws or pass new ones.
Push states to strengthen and use their antitrust and unfair-competition tools while federal reform is contested. Focus on concrete legislative changes and proactive engagement with state enforcers that can block harmful deals and deter exclusionary conduct. State action can also set de facto national norms when large markets move first.
Why this works
Doesn’t rely on slow federal process, and states are labs of democracy. Some AGs (NY, CA, etc.) are very active and could be empowered by new state statutes giving them more bite.
Tech Oversight Project
AdvocacyHolding Big Tech accountable through policy and pressure
The Tech Oversight Project is a tech policy advocacy organization launched in 2022 to push for aggressive government action against Big Tech monopolies:. It is the only watchdog focused solely on advancing antitrust legislation and regulatory scrutiny of companies like Amazon, Google, Meta, and Apple. The Tech Oversight Project uses campaign-style tactics — rapid response communications, opposition research, and media outreach — to counter Big Tech’s lobbying and rally support for reforms that protect consumers, privacy, and competition:.
Mechanism
How Tech Oversight Project uses funding
- Identify target state bills and enforcement actions that strengthen merger scrutiny and unfair-competition authority.
- Build a coalition of small businesses, consumers, and experts to support the reforms.
- Meet with legislators and staff, provide testimony, and draft amendments that clarify enforcement power.
- Track committee movement and deadlines; coordinate outreach when votes approach.
- Share wins and replicate successful frameworks across additional states.
