Congress is attempting to block a decision by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau that would undo protections requiring credit reporting companies to use more careful procedures when matching people's names to their credit files, which could prevent innocent people from being wrongly denied loans or credit. If approved, this resolution would force the agency to keep the original rule in place that requires stricter name-matching standards. The measure affects credit reporting agencies, lenders, and consumers who rely on accurate credit reporting.
