“Mr. Speaker, I yield myself such time as I may consume. Mr. Speaker, I rise in strong support of my legislation H.R. 6048, the NDO Fairness Act of 2025, and urge its passage.

“Today's legislation, while not a major overhaul of the ECPA, provides us with an opportunity to address the threat to our constitutional freedoms, not just for elected officials, but for all Americans. These changes, I believe, will bring searches of the cloud more closely in line with the Fourth Amendment searches. Mr.”

“Mr. Speaker, I rise today in support of Chairman Hill's resolution to overturn the CFPB's misguided overdraft rule. In Wisconsin, community banks and credit unions are the backbone of our local economies. They know their customers. They serve their neighbors.”

“Mr. Speaker, many people will face declined payments, higher minimum balance requirements or, worse, be pushed toward riskier unregulated products. This resolution will repeal the CFPB's rule and protect consumers' access to financial products.”

“Mr. Speaker, I yield myself the balance of my time. Mr. Speaker, I reiterate my strong support for this bipartisan bill, H.R. 6048, which will provide much-needed safeguards on the secrecy order process. This bill passed the House nearly unanimously last Congress, and it is my hope it does so again today. Mr. Speaker, I urge all my colleagues to again vote ``aye'' on this, and I yield back the balance of my time.”

These changes, I believe, will bring searches of the cloud more closely in line with the Fourth Amendment searches. Mr. Speaker, I thank my colleague from New York (Mr. Nadler) for co- leading this bill. I also thank the chairman of the committee, Chairman Jordan, for his leadership on the issue. Mr. Speaker, I urge swift passage of this bill, and I reserve the balance of my time.”

“Mr. Speaker, I yield myself such time as I may consume. Mr. Speaker, I rise in strong support of my legislation H.R. 6048, the NDO Fairness Act of 2025, and urge its passage. This bill makes much-needed changes to the way law enforcement obtains and utilizes nondisclosure orders, also known as secrecy orders. Before modern advancements in cloud computing, when a law enforcement officer wanted to search someone's office, they would be required to obtain a search warrant based on probable cause. When the officer executed the search, they would notify the individual, who would then have an opportunity to challenge the search in court. However, the era of cloud computing has ushered in a new method of storing sensitive information, whereby individuals are replacing file cabinets with digital file folders.”

“Mr. Speaker, many people will face declined payments, higher minimum balance requirements or, worse, be pushed toward riskier unregulated products. This resolution will repeal the CFPB's rule and protect consumers' access to financial products. I urge my colleagues to support this CRA resolution, defend consumer choice, and restore regulatory certainty to our financial system.”

“Mr. Speaker, I rise today in support of Chairman Hill's resolution to overturn the CFPB's misguided overdraft rule. In Wisconsin, community banks and credit unions are the backbone of our local economies. They know their customers. They serve their neighbors. They provide trusted financial tools like overdraft protection to help families manage their emergencies. Overdraft protection is a critical tool that helps families avoid declined transactions, bounced checks, and costly disruptions. It does so transparently with clear disclosure. A 2023 study from the Financial Health Network found consumers want overdraft services and the flexibilities that they provide. The CFPB rule amounts to government price controls that will limit access to a lawful, contractually agreed-upon product. The rule will not help working families.”
