NEW YORK -- A bipartisan group of U.S. senators will introduce a bill meant to prevent Big Tech from pressing an advantage over smaller competitors, providing a major test of antitrust legislation aimed at technology companies under President Joe Biden's administration.

Sen. Amy Klobuchar, the Democrat who chairs the Senate Judiciary Committee's antitrust subcommittee, and Sen. Chuck Grassley, the top-ranking Republican on the committee, said they will introduce the American Innovation and Choice Online Act to Congress early next week.
