On April 1, 2025, Countering Weapons of Mass Destruction (CWMD) filed notifications with the Attorney General and the Federal Trade Commission about changes in its membership. New members like LifePort LLC and others have joined, while companies such as General Atomics and TIAX LLC have left. These notifications are aimed at taking advantage of the Act's provision limiting antitrust plaintiffs to actual damages. CWMD plans to keep membership open and will report further changes in the future.
Simple Explanation
The government received a notice that a group working to stop bad guys from using very dangerous weapons has new members joining, like LifePort LLC, and some members leaving, like General Atomics. This helps them follow special rules that say they only have to pay for real damage if there’s any trouble.
