Letter to Congress: AFR Urges Congress Not to Weaken Dodd-Frank Financial Protections
AFR sent a letter to members of Congress urging them to oppose HR 1309, the “Systemic Risk Designation Improvement Act of 2015.” This legislation would make major deregulatory changes in Dodd-Frank directives concerning the oversight of some of the largest banks in the country. It would make it harder for regulators to take action to manage dangers to financial stability, and make it easier for individual large banks to use special pleading to escape from oversight.
