Blocking changes to capital requirements for major U.S. banks

This resolution cancels a new rule that would have modified financial reserve requirements for the largest banks. By doing so, it keeps existing safety standards in place to help ensure the stability of the banking system and protect the economy.
Key points
Congress rejects the Treasury's plan to change bank leverage and debt rules.
Large banks must continue to hold specific amounts of capital to cover potential losses.
The move aims to protect the economy from risks associated with 'too big to fail' banks.
