Full interview: Sen. Amy Klobuchar on a new trustbusting era in the Senate
Sen. Amy Klobuchar is the chair of the Senate Subcommittee on Competition Policy, Antitrust and Consumer Rights. She’s also on the Judiciary Committee.

The bill proposes giving federal agencies the authority to issue civil penalties for anti-competitive activities in the tech sector.
