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 2015-07 re: in-person collection of consumer debt".
This joint resolution seeks to overturn a Bureau of Consumer Financial Protection rule that would remove a previous regulation about in-person debt collection practices. If passed, it would prevent the Bureau from withdrawing the 2015 guidelines that govern how collectors interact with consumers face-to-face. The measure requires congressional approval to allow the agency to make this regulatory change, effectively keeping the existing rules in place. It directly affects the Bureau's authority to modify consumer financial protection standards and impacts debt collectors operating under those guidelines.
