Plain-English Summary

Congress is considering blocking a decision by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to stop requiring companies to publicly disclose complaints customers file against them. If approved, this resolution would force the agency to keep the old rule in place, meaning consumers could continue to see what complaints others have made about banks, credit card companies, and other financial firms. The measure is currently under review by the Senate Banking Committee.
