Bill > HR1265

This bill, titled the Bureau Advisory Commission Transparency Act, amends the Consumer Financial Protection Act of 2010 to ensure that the Federal Advisory Committee Act (FACA) applies to all advisory committees and subcommittees of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB). FACA is a federal law that governs how advisory committees, which are groups that provide advice to the government, operate, including requirements for public meetings, record-keeping, and reporting. By making FACA applicable to the CFPB's advisory bodies, this bill aims to increase transparency and public access to the decision-making processes of these groups within the CFPB, a government agency established to protect consumers in the financial sector.
