Became Public Law No: 119-11.
S.J. Res. 28 is a joint resolution that disapproves the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau final rule titled “Defining Larger Participants of a Market for General-Use Digital Consumer Payment Applications” (89 Fed.
Reg. 99582, Dec. 10, 2024).
The resolution declares that the rule "shall have no force or effect." The measure was enacted as Public Law No. 119-11.
Narrow, administrable measure improves prospects versus complex statutes, but regulatory rollbacks often provoke organized stakeholder opposition and require sufficient Senate support.
How solid the drafting looks.
Progressives emphasize consumer-protection loss and weakened oversight of Big Tech.
Progressives emphasize consumer-protection loss and weakened oversight of Big Tech.
This persona would generally oppose the resolution because it nullifies a CFPB rule intended to define which digital payment apps face agency oversight.
They would view the action as removing or delaying consumer protections and oversight of large digital-payment platforms.
They would prefer preserving or improving the rule to ensure protections for consumers using general-use digital payment apps.
This persona would see tradeoffs: the resolution removes a regulatory definition that could impose burdens, but it also eliminates a potential consumer-protection tool.
They would look for evidence that the rule’s benefits justify costs and for a more narrowly tailored approach.
They may favor negotiated fixes or additional analysis rather than an outright permanent removal without replacement.
This persona would broadly support the resolution as a check on CFPB expansion and federal regulatory reach into digital payment markets.
They would see nullifying the rule as protecting innovation, reducing regulatory burdens, and defending limits on administrative authority.
They would prefer market-driven and state-level solutions over a broad federal rule.
