Keep CFPB subscription protections

If enacted, this joint resolution would disapprove the CFPB rule that withdrew Consumer Financial Protection Circular 2023-01. The disapproved withdrawal rule is the one published at 90 Fed. Reg. 20086 (May 12, 2025). That would leave Circular 2023-01 as published at 88 Fed. Reg. 5727 (January 30, 2023) in place. Consumers and businesses would continue to be subject to the circular's rules against unlawful negative-option marketing, like hidden subscription renewals, unless a later rule or law changes that status.
