Protect consumer credit-report rules
If enacted, this resolution would disapprove the CFPB rule that withdraws the 2022 "Fair Credit Reporting; Permissible Purposes" rule (87 Fed. Reg. 41243, July 12, 2022). It would declare the referenced withdrawal notice (90 Fed. Reg. 20084, May 12, 2025) to have no force or effect. This would keep the 2022 limits on who may furnish, use, or obtain consumer reports. Consumers, credit reporting agencies, lenders, employers, and landlords would be the main groups affected. The change would take effect upon enactment.
