"SEC Mandates Scaled-Back Climate Disclosure Rules for Companies"

The SEC has voted to require companies to disclose their greenhouse gas emissions and the potential impact of climate change on their businesses, but with a scaled-back rule that gives companies more flexibility in how they report this information. The new rule will require companies to disclose their own emissions, as well as those generated by their suppliers and customers, but it will not mandate specific emissions reduction targets.

Senate Overturns CFPB Small Business Rule Despite Biden's Veto Threat

The Senate voted to overturn a Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) rule that required lenders to report demographic data on small-business loan recipients, despite a veto threat from the White House. The rule aimed to ensure equitable distribution of loans to underrepresented borrowers, but critics argued it was intrusive and burdensome. The House still needs to act on the resolution. The CFPB finalized the rule in March, but a federal court in Texas suspended its enforcement for members of the American Bankers Association. The White House warned that overturning the rule would harm transparency and accountability in the small business financing market.

The league president hopes this will help combat the problem of overbearing parents and prevent official shortages. While some parents and social media users think it's a great idea, others believe it could lead to agonizingly pointless games ruined by horrible ump calls.
