The Wheeler-Lea Act of 1938 amended the Federal Trade Commission Act to prohibit deceptive acts and practices in commerce, expanding the Federal Trade Commission's (FTC) authority. It aimed to protect consumers from false advertising and misleading marketing practices, ensuring fair competition. By addressing deceptive practices directly, the act strengthened consumer protection and helped foster a more transparent marketplace.
