This joint resolution proposes to exercise congressional disapproval, under chapter 8 of title 5, United States Code, to nullify a rule issued by the Bureau of Consumer Financial Protection (BCFP). The targeted BCFP rule specifically concerns the withdrawal of its prior guidance, Bulletin 2015-02 , which addressed the Section 8 housing choice voucher homeownership program . By disapproving the BCFP's withdrawal rule, Congress aims to prevent the removal of Bulletin 2015-02, thereby ensuring its continued force and effect. This legislative action would effectively maintain the existing guidance for the homeownership component of the Section 8 program. The resolution explicitly states that the BCFP's withdrawal rule, upon congressional disapproval, "shall have no force or effect."
