Plain-English Summary
Congress is attempting to block a decision by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency to cancel its guidelines that required large banks to consider climate-related financial risks in their operations. If approved, this resolution would force the banking regulator to keep those climate risk management principles in place rather than eliminate them. The measure affects major financial institutions and their approach to managing long-term environmental risks to their business.
