Law

Unlikely to pass

Resolutions to overturn agency rules usually fail unless the party in control of Congress is different from the party in the White House.

Key Points

This resolution would stop the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau from canceling a program that monitors financial risks to military members.
It aims to keep protections in place that help prevent active-duty servicemembers and their families from being targeted by unfair lending or banking practices.
By blocking the agency's decision to end these rules, Congress would ensure that the government continues to check how banks and lenders treat military families.
This action uses a special law that lets Congress cancel rules made by government agencies if they believe the rule is a mistake.
