Definition
- legislation, consumer protection measures, and other efforts at the state level designed to monitor and control marketing activities such as advertising; individual states vary in their approach to governing unfair and deceptive marketing practices, but every state has the power to investigate and prosecute cases, and each is a valuable extension of the federal regulatory mechanisms aimed at consumer protection and the preservation of competition.
