Rep. Jayapal Kicks Off Day Two of Anti-Monopoly Summit, Highlighting Fight Against Corporate Power

Washington, D.C. – Representative Pramila Jayapal (D-WA) delivered keynote remarks on the second day of the 2025 Anti-Monopoly Summit (#AMS2025), a flagship event hosted by the American Economic Liberties Project (AELP). The summit, held in Washington, D.C., focuses on strategies to combat monopolistic corporations and build a more equitable economy. The American Economic Liberties Project announced her participation, stating, "Day 2 of #AMS2025 is starting—and we’re kicking off with some keynote remarks from @RepJayapal!"

The American Economic Liberties Project is a non-profit, non-partisan organization dedicated to dismantling concentrated economic power and advancing economic liberty. Founded in February 2020, AELP works to translate the intellectual victories of the anti-monopoly movement into concrete policy changes, engaging with policymakers and the media on issues ranging from healthcare consolidation to Big Tech's influence. The 2025 summit brings together a diverse group of stakeholders, including small business owners, union leaders, legal experts, and policymakers.

Representative Jayapal, a prominent voice in the anti-monopoly movement and Vice Chair of the House Antitrust Subcommittee, has consistently advocated for policies to rein in corporate power. She has been instrumental in introducing legislation aimed at holding Big Tech monopolies accountable for anti-competitive conduct, including the "Ending Platform Monopolies Act." This bill seeks to prevent dominant platforms from leveraging their control across multiple business lines to disadvantage competitors.

Further underscoring her commitment, Rep. Jayapal co-launched the "Monopoly Busters Caucus" in April 2025, a bipartisan initiative focused on fighting corporate greed and promoting a pro-worker, pro-consumer, and pro-small business economic agenda. Her remarks at #AMS2025 are expected to reinforce these legislative priorities and the broader goal of fostering competition in various sectors of the U.S. economy. The summit provides a crucial platform for discussing and advancing these critical policy areas.
