Klobuchar Opening Statement at Antitrust Subcommittee Hearing on Competition in the Digital Advertising Marketplace

Hearing

Date: May 3, 2023
Location: Washington, D.C.
Issues: Technology and Communication Economy and Fiscal

"Advertising, which is really at the center of this market, digital advertising, pays for many of the apps and websites we use throughout the day to read the news, look up recipes online, and stream movies. And like much of the digital economy, there is a lack of competition in digital advertising markets that has been harmful to small businesses and consumers. Today's hearing is about the consequences we are seeing from the unchecked consolidation and a reluctance to enforce antitrust laws. And it's about what we can do about it. I know that on this Committee, we are ready to stand up for American consumers, small businesses, and innovation."
