Sherman Anti Trust Act of 1890 was passed under McKinley in 1890. It threatened monopolistic industries which subordinated public interest to private wealth and greed.

The Clayton Anti Trust Act of 1914 was passed under Wilson in 1914. It lengthened the list of unfair business practices from the Sherman Act. It benefited labor, as it sought to exclude labor and agricultural organizations from antitrust prosecution while legalizing strikes and peaceful protest.
