Subject: issuance, withdrawal и еще кое-что To illustrate, consider the issuance in 2008 by the Bush administration and subsequent withdrawal in 2009 by the Obama administration of the Department of Justice (DOJ) report on competition and monopoly. Despite their joint task force, the FTC did not join the report. The report was seen as too deferential to monopolies. “Withdrawing the Section 2 report,” Christine A. Varney, then head of the DOJ’s Antitrust Division, said, “is a shift in philosophy and the clearest way to let everyone know that the Antitrust Division will be aggressively pursuing cases where monopolists try to use their dominance in the marketplace to stifle competition and harm consumers.” Notwithstanding her rhetoric, the DOJ since 1999 has challenged a monopoly only once for engaging in anticompetitive unilateral conduct. This case involved a private hospital in Wichita Falls, the twenty-ninth largest city in Texas. 15 Neither the FTC nor the DOJ has challenged many data-driven mergers or the alleged anticompetitive practices of Google and Amazon.С issuance более-менее ясно - "публикация", но как правильно назвать противоположное действие? И второй вопрос: did not join the report - "отказалась поставить подпись"?
