The record shows no enacted federal action attributable to April McClain Delaney that strengthened antitrust enforcement against predatory pricing, platform control, or anti-competitive acquisitions during her current House term. The cited enacted measures instead weakened related oversight, including nullifying a stricter OCC bank-merger review rule and removing CFPB supervisory coverage for large payment-app firms. McClain Delaney did vote against the bank-merger rule disapproval, which is a concrete same-term effort to preserve stronger review, but it did not stop the law from passing or deliver the promised strengthening.
