"By deleting documents, the FTC likely violated federal law. It also impeded Congressional oversight of the FTC’s recent, unprecedented actions, including its proposed rule banning non-compete clauses," Sen.

ensure it never happens again," Cruz wrote, joined by Rep. Jim Jordan,
an Ohio Republican and chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, and
Rep. James Comer, a Kentucky Republican and the chairman of the House
Committee on Oversight and Accountability. Read more and see video here.
