District court judge issues temporary restraining order to block rule from taking effect
A coalition of 25 states co-led by Attorney General Nick Brown has secured an order temporarily blocking a new rule by the U.S. Postal Service (USPS) that would have disrupted the states’ vote-by-mail programs and put voters’ rights at risk ahead of the November 3 midterm elections.

Two of the country’s top property listing websites will end an anticompetitive scheme harming consumers under a settlement announced today with a coalition of five attorneys general – co-led by Attorney General Nick Brown – and the Federal Trade Commission (FTC).

A federal court today approved a $700 million settlement in a multistate antitrust lawsuit against Google. The lawsuit challenged Google's control over Android app distribution and in-app payments. The approval of the settlement ends a five-year case and gives relief to consumers nationwide who were affected by Google's actions.
Attorney General Nick Brown today issued the following statement as a bipartisan coalition of attorneys general began presenting their case against Meta. The states are alleging that the social media giant knowingly designed and deployed harmful features on Facebook and Instagram that drive compulsive use of the platforms by children and teens, while falsely assuring parents and the public that its platforms were safe for young users.
Attorney General Nick Brown and a multistate coalition secured a major victory on Friday protecting gender-affirming care from federal overreach.
The U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts struck down a key provision of a Trump administration final rule that would have excluded coverage of certain types of gender-affirming care as essential health benefits under the Affordable Care Act (ACA). Essential health benefits are subject to the ACA’s financial protections, including limits on out-of-pocket costs.
