119th (2025–2027)
S.J.Res. 176
This joint resolution uses the Congressional Review Act to block a decision by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to withdraw a rule requiring companies to disclose complaint narrative data from consumers. The original rule, issued in 2015, mandated that financial companies make public the text descriptions consumers submit when filing complaints. The CFPB moved to eliminate this disclosure requirement in May 2025, and this resolution seeks to overturn that withdrawal decision. If approved by both chambers of Congress and signed by the President, the resolution would reinstate the requirement for companies to disclose consumer complaint narratives. The measure was introduced by Senator Elizabeth Warren and affects financial institutions and consumer advocacy groups interested in transparency about company complaints.
