SJRES 165 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 2015-02 re: Section 8 housing choice voucher homeownership program".

This joint resolution seeks to disapprove a rule from the Bureau of Consumer Financial Protection that would have withdrawn a 2015 regulation regarding the Section 8 housing choice voucher homeownership program. If passed, the resolution would prevent the Bureau from removing the existing guidance that allows low-income families to use housing vouchers to purchase homes. The measure directly affects the Bureau's regulatory authority and the housing assistance program it oversees. It does not change the underlying law but instead blocks a specific administrative action that would have altered how the program operates.
