Executive Summary
FTC CHAIRMAN NOMINEE PITOFSKY'S SENATE CONFIRMATION WILL BE MORE DIFFICULT in light of the Republican control of the Senate. President Clinton's Oct. 6 nomination of Robert Pitofsky-a Washington, D.C. lawyer who served as an FTC commissioner in the Carter administration-will likely face scrutiny from a Republican- controlled Senate that is inclined to minimize government oversight of business practices.
