Bill > HR5911

This bill, the Fair Hiring in Banking Act, aims to expand employment opportunities for individuals with a previous minor criminal offense in the banking and credit union industries. It amends the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and the Federal Credit Union Act to create exceptions to prohibitions on employment for certain older, minor offenses, expunged or sealed records, and de minimis offenses. The bill also establishes a consent application process for affected individuals or their employers, with regional and national review, and requires the regulatory agencies to consider evidence of rehabilitation and other mitigating factors. Additionally, the agencies must review the implementation of these changes and report to Congress on recommendations for further expanding employment opportunities.
