Plain-English Summary
The Federal Trade Commission would need to have a majority of its commissioners present and voting before making major new rules or policy decisions, rather than allowing a smaller group to act. This requirement would apply to significant regulatory actions that affect businesses and consumers, ensuring broader agreement among the agency's leadership before implementing major changes. The change would make it harder for the FTC to quickly adopt new rules but could require more consensus among commissioners before proceeding.
