Summary of Bill SJRES 28

Bill 119 SJRes 28 is a joint resolution that aims to disapprove a rule submitted by the Bureau of Consumer Financial Protection regarding the definition of "larger participants" in the market for general-use digital consumer payment applications. The rule in question seeks to establish criteria for determining which companies qualify as larger participants in this market, which would subject them to additional regulations and oversight by the Bureau.

Supporters of the resolution argue that the rule is overly broad and could potentially stifle innovation and competition in the digital payment industry. They believe that the criteria outlined in the rule are too vague and could result in unintended consequences for smaller companies operating in the market.

Opponents of the resolution, on the other hand, argue that the rule is necessary to protect consumers and ensure that larger companies in the digital payment industry are held accountable for their actions. They believe that the criteria outlined in the rule are necessary to prevent potential abuses of power by larger participants in the market. Overall, the resolution has sparked a contentious debate in Congress, with lawmakers on both sides of the aisle expressing strong opinions on the issue. It remains to be seen whether the resolution will ultimately be passed and the rule disapproved, or if the Bureau of Consumer Financial Protection will be allowed to move forward with its proposed regulations.
