Plain-English Summary

Congress would reject a decision by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to withdraw its guidance on how credit reporting companies should investigate disputes from consumers about errors on their credit reports. This would restore the agency's previous rules requiring credit bureaus to conduct reasonable investigations when consumers challenge inaccurate information. The change would affect credit reporting companies and consumers who dispute errors on their credit files.
