Motion to proceed to consideration of measure rejected in Senate by Voice Vote. (consideration: CR S2269)
Summary
The Senate joint resolution nullifies the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau's proposed rule that would have removed a regulation on time‑barred debt under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act. By disapproving the rule, Congress ensures it has no legal effect. The measure, introduced by Sen. Andy Kim, signals legislative opposition to rolling back debt‑collection protections for consumers.
