This joint resolution proposes congressional disapproval of a specific rule issued by the Bureau of Consumer Financial Protection (CFPB) under the Congressional Review Act. The rule targeted for disapproval is the CFPB's action to withdraw a prior regulation concerning "Fair Credit Reporting; Background Screening." By disapproving this withdrawal rule, Congress aims to prevent the CFPB from nullifying its earlier background screening provisions. If passed, the CFPB's withdrawal rule would have no force or effect , effectively maintaining the status of the original background screening rule. This legislative action represents an effort to override an agency's decision to rescind a regulation.
