This section defines three terms used in sections 34 through 36: "local government" means cities, counties, school districts, and similar units created by state law; "person" follows the Clayton Act's definition but excludes local governments; and "State" follows the Clayton Act's definition.

For purposes of sections 34 to 36 of this title, this section sets three definitions. (1) "Local government" means either (A) a city, county, parish, town, township, village, or any other general-purpose government unit created by state law, or (B) a school district, sanitary district, or any other special-purpose government unit created by state law in one or more states. (2) "Person" has the meaning given in subsection (a) of the first section of the Clayton Act, but it does not include a local government as defined in paragraph (1). (3) "State" has the meaning given in section 4G(2) of the Clayton Act.
