President Donald Trump signed an Executive Order in the Oval Office Monday afternoon, at the urging of singer ‘Kid Rock’, to protect fans from exploitative ticket scalping.
Fox News explained: The president’s executive order directs the Federal Trade Commission to work with the attorney general to ensure that competition laws are enforced in the concert and entertainment industry.
The order also enforces the Better Online Ticket Sales (BOTS) act and promote its enforcement by state consumer protection authorities.
The president’s order also ensures price transparency at all stages of the ticket-purchasing process, including through the secondary ticketing market; and will evaluate, and, if appropriate, take enforcement action to prevent “unfair, deceptive, and anti-competitive conduct” in the secondary ticketing market.
After signing the order, the president then took over 30 minutes to respond to multiple questions from reporters in the Oval Office.
Trump answered questions on a wide range of topics, including the speculation about him wanting to run for a third term, manufacturing coming back to the U.S., tariffs, Tiger Woods dating his former daughter-in-law, and much more.
