John Owned a Construction Company That Frequently Bid on State

John owned a construction company that frequently bid on state contracts. He agreed with other construction company owners to rig the bidding process to ensure that each company would receive state contracts. The firm designated among the group to receive the bid would submit an inflated price and the others would submit even higher bids to ensure the first company would receive the contract. This led to unreasonably high costs for government projects. What may allow for the prosecution of this behavior?

A) the Sarbanes Oxley Act
B) the Sherman Antitrust Act of 1890
C) the act in opposition to monopolies
