Insurance: More State Control, Less Federal Oversight

This bill aims to limit the authority of the federal Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) over insurance companies already regulated by state authorities. This means that in insurance matters, state agencies will have primary enforcement power, which could affect how consumer complaints and disputes related to insurance policies are handled.
Key points
The federal Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) will have limited authority over state-regulated insurance companies.
State insurance regulators will gain more autonomy in overseeing insurance business.
Consumer protection rules in the insurance sector will be interpreted in favor of state regulators.
