Miller opposes new antitrust bill in senate clash
Attorney general Miller criticizes a proposed antitrust measure from Senator Milburn, saying it gives the AG power to compel information in circuit court and probes corporate affairs, but would be slow and ineffective within his term. He would prefer information access in the supreme court or a clearer, meaningful reform. Milburn vows a similar bill without AG changes, aiming to advance antitrust oversight.
