SJRES 166 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 "Equal Credit Opportunity (Regulation B); Discrimination on the Bases of Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity".

This joint resolution seeks to formally disapprove a Bureau of Consumer Financial Protection rule that would have withdrawn protections against credit discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity. If enacted, the measure would nullify the agency's decision to remove these safeguards from Regulation B, the Equal Credit Opportunity Act. The bill directly affects lenders and financial institutions by requiring them to maintain existing non-discrimination standards in credit decisions. It uses the Congressional Review Act process to overturn a prior administrative action without creating new policy requirements.
