Summary
This joint resolution seeks to disapprove a specific rule issued by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) under the Congressional Review Act. The OCC rule, published in November 2025, was titled "Rescission of Principles for Climate-Related Financial Risk Management for Large Financial Institutions," indicating its intent to cancel these guidelines. By passing this resolution, Congress would prevent the OCC's rescission rule from taking effect , thereby ensuring that the principles for managing climate-related financial risks for large institutions remain in force. The resolution explicitly states that the disapproved rule "shall have no force or effect," preserving the existing framework for addressing climate risks in the financial sector.
