This joint resolution seeks to exercise congressional disapproval under the Congressional Review Act, targeting a specific rule issued by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC). The rule in question pertains to the process for reviewing applications submitted under the Bank Merger Act . Specifically, the resolution aims to nullify the OCC's rule, which was published in the Federal Register on September 25, 2024. If passed, this action would ensure that the new procedures outlined in that rule for evaluating bank mergers would not take effect, thereby maintaining existing standards for such reviews.
