Plain-English Summary

Congress would reject a new rule from the Treasury Department's banking regulator that changes how it reviews bank merger applications. The rule would be blocked before it takes effect, meaning banks seeking to merge would continue operating under the previous approval process rather than the new one. This affects large financial institutions planning mergers and the communities they serve.
