What it does
This joint resolution seeks to disapprove a rule issued by the Bureau of Consumer Financial Protection that withdrew Bulletin 2023-01, which had addressed unfair billing and collection practices related to certain student loan debts after bankruptcy discharge. If enacted, the resolution would nullify the Bureau’s withdrawal rule, meaning the original guidance in Bulletin 2023-01 would remain in effect. The measure affects student loan borrowers and entities involved in student loan servicing or debt collection, particularly regarding post-bankruptcy discharge practices. It was introduced in the House and referred to the Committee on Financial Services for consideration.
