Plain-English Summary

This bill would establish clearer rules and timelines for how federal agencies review and approve major business mergers and acquisitions, making the process more predictable for companies involved. By setting specific deadlines and procedures for agencies like the Federal Trade Commission and Department of Justice to make their decisions, the legislation aims to reduce uncertainty and delays that can drag out merger reviews for months or years. The changes would primarily affect large corporations and financial institutions planning major deals, while potentially speeding up business transactions across the economy.
