State Attorney General Generic Casebook
Detailed Roadmap to Core Readings
This sections considers some of the hotter issues today in AG consumer protection. On the privacy front, the Citrona article describes that authority, and the next two readings show how AGs try to fill in the gaps on privacy enforcement. Once again, the question is whether this is a proper role for a state AG.
Antitrust, especially against Big Tech, is an important issue for AGs today. The CO example shows how states can work with the feds and perhaps fill in some gaps. The truncated review of Big Tech suits shows a lot of action, but not that many results to date. Should these resources be devoted elsewhere? The DOJ-states lawsuit on the JetBlue-American "alliance" shows more state-federal cooperation and that the lineups in antitrust may not mirror the red-blue divide in other AG fights.
