AB 1776 (Aguiar-Curry), OCBC OPPOSE

AB 1776 (Aguiar-Curry) would grant the state Attorney General broad authority to open investigations into any company, of any size, for virtually any reason. The bill also includes a private right of action that would allow unions, competitors and other third parties to bring lawsuits against businesses. This could lead to scenarios where neighboring businesses, such as grocery stores or competing entities, sue one another over alleged market dominance.
