Bill Summary

Congress is considering blocking a decision by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to withdraw its rule that banned "pay-to-pay" fees charged by debt collectors—fees that borrowers have to pay just to make a payment on their debts. If approved, this would reinstate the protection that prevents debt collectors from charging these extra fees. The resolution affects debt collectors and millions of Americans struggling with debt who could face additional charges when trying to pay what they owe.
