SJRES 126 United States Senate · 119th Congress

A joint resolution providing for congressional disapproval under chapter 8 of title 5, United States Code, of the rule submitted by the Bureau of Consumer Financial Protection relating to the withdrawal of the rule relating to "Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (Regulation F); Time-Barred Debt".

This joint resolution seeks to disapprove a rule from the Bureau of Consumer Financial Protection that would have withdrawn a previous regulation on time-barred debt under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act. If passed, the resolution would prevent the Bureau from removing the existing rules that govern how debt collectors handle debts that are past their legal statute of limitations. The measure directly affects debt collection practices and the regulatory framework overseen by the Bureau of Consumer Financial Protection. It uses the Congressional Review Act process to formally reject the agency's proposed regulatory change.
