The Federal Trade Commission's major swing at Amazon on Tuesday is part of a larger offensive targeting the company.

The agency's antitrust lawsuit against the e-commerce giant, filed with the support of 17 state attorneys general, is just the latest in a string of legal complaints against the company filed under the Biden administration.

The White House’s pick to lead the FTC, Lina Khan, has earned praise from consumer rights groups for her longstanding critiques of Amazon as a monopolistic power, as well as criticism from business lobbies.

Khan’s FTC has already brought three other cases against Amazon this year. Two have been settled out of court, while a third is still awaiting trial.

The attorneys general of California and Washington, D.C., have also independently sued Amazon, each alleging Amazon engaged in anticompetitive practices by forcing sellers to abide by restrictive agreements.
