Plain-English Summary

Congress is considering blocking a rule change by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau that would withdraw protections for whistleblowers who report wrongdoing at financial companies. If approved, this resolution would prevent the agency from removing those whistleblower safeguards, keeping workers who expose fraud or illegal practices at banks and financial institutions protected from retaliation. The measure is currently under review by the Senate Banking Committee.
