Bill Summary

A joint resolution providing for congressional disapproval under chapter 8 of title 5, United States Code, of the rule submitted by the Securities and Exchange Commission relating to "Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 121".

AI Summary

This Joint Resolution formally expresses Congress's disapproval of a specific rule issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), known as Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 121 (SAB 121). The resolution uses a process outlined in Chapter 8 of Title 5 of the United States Code, which allows Congress to overturn certain regulations issued by federal agencies. The SEC's SAB 121, which was published in the Federal Register and later deemed a "rule" by the Government Accountability Office (GAO), has been the subject of debate, and this resolution aims to nullify its effects, meaning it will no longer be in force.
