Revoking MLB Anti-Trust Exemption Over All-Star Game Move – PJ Media
Republican Senators Ted Cruz and Mike Lee are calling for Congress to end the antitrust exemption for Major League Baseball following MLB’s decision to move the All-Star Game from Atlanta because of the voting law.
Rep. Jeff Duncan is spearheading the effort in the House.
In light of @MLB's stance to undermine election integrity laws, I have instructed my staff to begin drafting legislation to remove Major League Baseball's federal antitrust exception.

Of course, neither measure has any hope of passing the House or the Senate, much less of getting signed by President Joe Biden (D-USA), but it’s a warning shot. Major League Baseball better hope that Republicans never regain the majority.
