Abstract

The article focuses on the nomination of FTC Commissioner Melissa Holyoak as interim U.S. attorney for the District of Utah by U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi on November 17, 2025. Holyoak served as a Federal Trade Commission (FTC) commissioner from March 2024 until her nomination date and previously held the position of solicitor general at the Utah Attorney General's Office, overseeing multiple legal divisions including antitrust and data privacy. Following her departure, the FTC is left with only two commissioners, both Republicans: Chairman Andrew N. Ferguson and Commissioner Mark R. Meador. [Extracted from the article]
