A bipartisan group of senators has written to the Federal Trade Commission requesting an investigation into Walmart and Amazon. The lawmakers want the agency to determine whether these retail giants properly moderate country-of-origin claims, specifically regarding the use of bots to manipulate 'Made in America' data. The inquiry stems from concerns about the accuracy of product labeling on these major e-commerce platforms.
