AI-generated summary, report an errorThis joint resolution would use the Congressional Review Act to cancel a May 2025 action by the Bureau of Consumer Financial Protection. In that action, the Bureau withdrew a 2014 rule explaining how the federal mortgage "ability-to-repay" requirement applies to successors-in-interest. Successors-in-interest are people, such as heirs or family members, who receive ownership of a home that still has a mortgage. If passed, the Bureau's withdrawal would have no force or effect.
