Summary of Bill SJRES 28
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.

I don't agree with this bill. It could hurt consumers like me who use digital payment apps. It's not fair.
