The U.S. Chamber of Commerce, along with various business groups, has filed a lawsuit against the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) challenging the ban on noncompete agreements. They argue that such agreements are beneficial for workers and the economy, while asserting that the FTC exceeded its authority in implementing the ban. The lawsuit comes shortly after the FTC issued a measure restricting noncompete clauses to only top-level executives, prompting legal action from the Chamber of Commerce and other entities.
