Plain-English Summary

This bill would make it easier for people harmed by identity theft, fraud, or predatory lending to fix their credit reports and recover financially. It would also give vulnerable consumers better tools to protect themselves from becoming victims of these crimes in the first place, and prevent companies from continuing to harm people who have already been victimized. The changes would apply to credit reporting agencies and other companies that handle consumer financial information.
