As previously mentioned on D+G PERKS, after issuing a sweeping proposal to ban non-competes, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) invited public comments on the proposal.  Given the number of comments received, the FTC recently extended the public comment period from March 20 to April 19.

Interested parties are encouraged to submit comments at this link: Regulations.gov
