Plain-English Summary

Congress is considering blocking a Consumer Financial Protection Bureau rule that would have prevented digital platforms (like comparison websites and apps) from unfairly steering consumers toward certain financial products that benefit the platform rather than the consumer. If passed, this resolution would overturn the agency's attempt to stop practices where platforms hide better deals or promote inferior products because they earn higher commissions. The measure affects consumers shopping for financial products online and the digital platforms and financial companies that use these steering tactics.
