When the attorney general ignores your complaint

I have never seen an Attorney General take action on a consumer complaint. The best outcome I’ve seen is they make the complaint public record, then do nothing. Other AGs reply to say “not a violation of deceptive trade practices”. And some AGs do not respond at all - they just ignore complaints.

The FTC and CFPB are also options but those are also often deadbeat agencies particularly under republican governance.

What’s the recourse? Who generally oversees a state’s AG?
