Bill > S4619

This bill, the Fair Access to Financial Services Act of 2022, aims to ensure that all persons are entitled to the full and equal enjoyment of the goods, services, facilities, privileges, and accommodations of any financial institution, without discrimination on the grounds of race, color, religion, national origin, sex (including sexual orientation and gender identity). It provides a private right of action for individuals who have been aggrieved, allowing them to seek preventive relief, including injunctions, and to potentially recover reasonable attorney's fees. The bill grants the district courts of the United States jurisdiction over such proceedings, and specifies that the remedies provided in the bill are the exclusive means of enforcing the rights based on this section, but does not preclude individuals or state/local agencies from asserting any right based on other federal or state laws.
