SJRES 148 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 "Bulletin 2022-01: Medical Debt Collection and Consumer Reporting Requirements in Connection with the No Surprises Act".

This joint resolution seeks to disapprove a Bureau of Consumer Financial Protection rule that would remove previous requirements about medical debt collection and consumer reporting under the No Surprises Act. The bill directly affects the federal agency responsible for consumer financial protection and would prevent the withdrawal of the 2022 bulletin that set specific rules for how medical debt is handled. If passed, the resolution would stop the new rule from taking effect, keeping the existing medical debt collection requirements in place. The measure requires approval from both the Senate and House of Representatives before it can become law.
