August 14, 2024, Press Release from the Office of Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost: (COLUMBUS, Ohio) — Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost today urged a federal court to toss an antitrust lawsuit brought by the Federal Trade Commission to block a merger between Kroger and Albertsons. In an amicus brief filed today with a U.S. District Court in Oregon, Yost and three other state attorneys general ask the court to let Kroger’s acquisition of Albertsons proceed. Yost and his counterparts contend that the FTC’s opposition to the deal is based on a flawed understanding of the marketplace in which the two retailers operate.
