Congress is considering blocking a rule change by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau that would withdraw protections limiting how debt collectors can harass people in person to collect debts. If approved, this resolution would prevent the agency from rolling back the 2015 guidance that restricted aggressive in-person debt collection tactics. The measure affects debt collectors and consumers who owe money and want protection from intimidating collection practices.
