IFA today applauded passage of California Senate Bill 919, bipartisan legislation extending disclosure requirements to third-party franchise sellers such as brokers, broker networks, and franchise sales organizations. The 75-0 Assembly vote follows months of IFA advocacy, with the support of the Coalition of Franchisee Associations (CFA) and American Association of Franchisees & Dealers (AAFD), promoting the legislation to strengthen the foundation on which the franchise relationship begins by improving information available to prospective franchisees. The bill passed the Senate in May and now heads to Gov. Gavin Newsom’s desk for signature.

“We applaud the decision by the Northern District of Texas vacating the FTC’s unlawful noncompete rule,” said Michael Layman, IFA senior vice president of government relations and public affairs. “Using the precedent from the Supreme Court decision overturning the Chevron doctrine, the ruling not only delivered the death knell to the FTC’s attempt to expand its rulemaking authority, but also agreed with the arguments raised by IFA in its amicus brief filed in the case that the rulemaking record, fraught with a lack of empirical data, does not allow for such a sweeping rule. The decision is a win for franchised small businesses and their right to independently operate.”
