Recent Congressional Signals for $EFX
S.J. Res. 129 is a CRA disapproval resolution nullifying the CFPB's withdrawal of FCRA preemption, reimposing a costly 50-state regulatory patchwork for credit reporting. This directly raises operating expenses for Equifax ($EFX) and FICO ($FICO) as compliance costs increase, and pressures national lenders Capital One ($COF) and American Express ($AXP) to adapt uniform credit systems to state-specific regulations. The bill is on the Senate calendar with fast-track CRA rules, making floor action imminent.
