Are noncompete agreements over? The Biden administration's Federal Trade Commission wants to make it so

The U.S. Chamber of Commerce met the Federal Trade Commission’s late April announcement that it would ban all future employee noncompete agreements with a simple, uncompromising declaration: See you in court.

“The Federal Trade Commission’s decision to ban employer noncompete agreements across the economy is not only unlawful but also a blatant power grab that will undermine American businesses’ ability to remain competitive,” charged Chamber President Suzanne P. Clark in a statement.
