Unlikely to pass

This is a special vote used to challenge agency rules. It rarely passes unless the majority party in Congress is trying to block an action taken by an agency they do not trust.

Key Points

This resolution seeks to overturn a decision by the Bureau of Consumer Financial Protection to cancel its own oversight rules. It targets a specific action that removed procedures for identifying which private financial companies need federal supervision.
The goal is to maintain a clear process for the government to monitor financial businesses that are not traditional banks. This includes companies that offer services like private student loans or payday lending.
If this measure passes, the agency would be forced to keep its previous standards for deciding when a company's activities are risky enough to require regular government inspections.
