President Trump talks tough on crime, but his administration is gutting enforcement against corporate lawbreakers.

Public Citizen’s Corporate Enforcement Tracker serves as a resource for watchdogging ongoing federal investigations and cases against alleged corporate wrongdoing that are at risk of being dropped, weakened, or otherwise modified by the Trump administration.

The tracker currently includes over 580 cases against more than 480 corporations over alleged misconduct. So far, the Trump administration has halted, dropped, or withdrawn enforcement actions against more than 160 corporations. The list is not comprehensive, but rather is intended to highlight significant investigations and cases. Any known ties between the corporations and the incoming administrations are noted, as are actions by the administration that could affect the cases. 

The existence of investigations and/or allegations of misconduct do not necessarily mean that any laws were broken, or that an enforcement action necessarily would have been brought under a different administration.
