The amendment was agreed to. The result of the vote was announced as above recorded. The Acting CHAIR (Mr. Veasey). There being no further amendments, under the rule, the Committee rises. Accordingly, the Committee rose; and the Speaker pro tempore (Ms. DeGette) having assumed the chair, Mr. Veasey, Acting Chair of the Committee of the Whole House on the state of the Union, reported that that Committee, having had under consideration the bill (H.R. 3621) to amend the Fair Credit Reporting Act to remove adverse information for certain defaulted or delinquent private education loan borrowers who demonstrate a history of loan repayment, and for other purposes, and, pursuant to House Resolution 811, he reported the bill, as amended by that resolution, back to the House with sundry further amendments adopted in the Committee of the Whole. The SPEAKER pro tempore. Under the rule, the previous question is ordered. Is a separate vote demanded on any further amendment reported from the Committee of the Whole? If not, the Chair will put them en gros. The amendments were agreed to. The SPEAKER pro tempore. The question is on the engrossment and third reading of the bill. The bill was ordered to be engrossed and read a third time, and was read the third time. Motion to Recommit Mr. HILL of Arkansas. Madam Speaker, I have a motion to recommit at the desk. The SPEAKER pro tempore. Is the gentleman opposed to the bill? Mr. HILL of Arkansas. I am, in its present form. The SPEAKER pro tempore. The Clerk will report the motion to recommit. The Clerk read as follows: Mr. Hill of Arkansas moves to recommit the bill H.R. 3621 to the Committee on Financial Services with instructions to report the same back to the House forthwith with the following amendment: Page 161, line 2, strike ``; and'' and insert after such line the following: ``(c) Limitation With Respect to Protected Expressions.-- The Bureau may not require, as a condition for a credit scoring model to satisfy the standards established under subsection (a) or as a condition for determining a credit scoring model is appropriate under subsection (b), that a credit [[Page H699]] scoring model make use of information related to political opinions, religious expression, or other expression protected by the First Amendment, whether obtained from a social media account of a consumer or other sources.''; and Mr. HILL of Arkansas (during the reading). Madam Speaker, I ask unanimous consent to dispense with the reading. The SPEAKER pro tempore. Is there objection to the request of the gentleman from Arkansas? There was no objection. The SPEAKER pro tempore. Pursuant to the rule, the gentleman from Arkansas is recognized for 5 minutes in support of his motion. Mr. HILL of Arkansas. Madam Speaker, let me start by saying the spirit of this bill is noble. Finding ways to ensure that all Americans, no matter of race, creed, color, or ZIP Code, have access to affordable credit is a noble pursuit. It is a top priority of the House Financial Services Committee. In fact, Madam Speaker, it is a personal priority. I have introduced H.R. 4231 that has bipartisan and bicameral support. It facilitates the use of additional data from rental, utility, and telecom payments to help more Americans repair and build their credit score. Thousands more would qualify and have better access to credit. The reality is that, while this is an issue that faces all Americans, it is communities of color that overwhelmingly face the greatest obstacles when it comes to obtaining access to affordable credit. Legislating is difficult. It requires good faith negotiation, compromise, and a willingness to take a small degree of political risk that occasionally makes our political lives a little more complicated. Messaging, Madam Speaker, on the other hand, is easy. It only requires the inherent power of the majority. There was a bipartisan path that could have been taken, but today, House Democrats chose to detour down the messaging-only path. With a vote today, the majority is, sadly, seeking to socialize credit, consumer credit ratings, and credit risk. This will jeopardize access to credit for millions of low-income and moderate-income families. This legislation will inhibit lenders' ability to get the full picture of a consumer's financial health, making risk more difficult to assess. This ultimately increases the cost and decreases the availability for our consumers. The good news is, Madam Speaker, that Republicans will stand united in opposition to a government takeover of our credit bureaus. Today, the majority in Congress seeks to socialize our credit system by having credit scoring and credit scoring models taken over by the government, specifically, the unaccountable Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. However, I hope that we can all come together on one major principle. My amendment will not kill the bill or send it back to committee. It will ensure that we do not allow Federal agencies to pick winners and losers based on political, religious, or other beliefs protected by our Constitution. Specifically, my friends, we need to ensure that the CFPB does not exploit this newfound power and punish Americans based on their heartfelt First Amendment rights. Simply put, my motion to recommit will prohibit the CFPB from requiring credit scoring models from using information related to Americans' political opinions, their religious beliefs, or other expression that is protected by the First Amendment. Let's make certain, my friends, that the United States Government doesn't use the tactics now made so popular in Beijing. In China, Madam Speaker, agencies are collecting enormous amounts of data related to individual financing, social media accounts, health records, and facial recognition. In China, my friends, now we have the social score. It permits rewards and punishments based on each individual's social score. For example, if you have a higher social score, you might get a discount on your monthly energy bill. If you have a lower score, you might not be able to get on that train or airplane. According to the Chinese Government, all social scores for 1.4 billion Chinese will be made publicly available this year. American ideals go against everything the social credit system represents. Supporting this MTR would ensure what is happening in China will never happen in our country. The CFPB has too much power, and we should make sure that Americans do not lose access to credit based on the decisions of an unaccountable organization. This unaccountable organization has a history of overstepping its bounds. As policymakers, we need to support measures that increase access to affordable credit and increase accuracy and security of the consumer credit information while remedying concerns about the existing system. This legislation undermines the fundamental strengths of that credit reporting system and makes it more difficult, more expensive, for lenders to analyze the credit risk of our friends and neighbors across this country. The United States has the best financial system in the world. I urge my colleagues to vote ``yes'' on this motion to recommit; vote ``no'' on the underlying bill. Help maintain the United States as the most competitive consumer finance system in the world. And I would urge my friends, there is a right way to vote on this MTR and there is a Huawei to vote on this MTR. Madam Speaker, I yield back the balance of my time. Mrs. BEATTY. Madam Speaker, I rise to claim the time in opposition. The SPEAKER pro tempore. The gentlewoman from Ohio is recognized for 5 minutes. Mrs. BEATTY. Madam Speaker, the current credit reporting system is broken and does not work for consumers, nor does this motion to recommit. Madam Speaker, I am going to take a few moments to address what my colleague just said, to address his jangling discords of words. Today, they are trying to slow down this bill. We have had four hearings, two markups in this Congress alone. Never once did this come up. And now they want to make it about false fears? Now they want to make it about free speech and China? Let me tell you something: We don't have free speech when credit bureaus own our information and it is wrong. Madam Speaker, the current credit reporting system is rigged in favor of the credit reporting agencies, plain and simple. They have all the power. They are accountable to no one. Ordinary American consumers are not their customers but their products. In 2017, Madam Speaker, one of the three credit reporting bureaus, Equifax, exposed personal information of more than 148 million Americans--nearly half the country--in the largest data breach ever, and there was nothing that our constituents could have done about it to protect or stop their sensitive personal information from being exposed. Even the ranking member of the Financial Services Committee admits that the system is broken. But what was the response of my Republican majority colleagues in 2017 when the American people found out that their data was breached? Did they bring any legislation to the floor to address it? Did they bring anything to fix it? No. Instead, they tried to repeal protections for people with preexisting conditions in affordable healthcare. Instead, they passed massive tax cuts for the 1 percent. Well, there is a new Democratic majority in this Congress, and we are acting to fix this broken system with the Comprehensive CREDIT Act. I thank Congresswoman Maxine Waters. There are few numbers as important to an individual as their credit score. Whether you are applying for a home loan, an auto loan, a credit card, or even applying for a job, a credit score plays a crucial role in the financial lives of all Americans. Despite its importance, the system is broken. The FTC found that 42 million consumers had errors found in their credit reports, and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau's complaint database shows that the number one topic by consumers, 39 percent of all complaints, was consumers reporting errors. Do the credit reporting companies care? No, they do not. Why should they? There is no incentive for them to care, because the consumers have no say. This package of bills would fundamentally overhaul the broken system and give the power over credit files [[Page H700]] back to the consumers where it belongs. This package of bills is For the People. Madam Speaker, I stand with Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley and her bill to remove predatory private education loan information from credit files. I stand with Congresswoman Tlaib and her bill to prohibit medical debt to be reported to credit bureaus for 1 year. I stand with Congressman Lynch and his bill to give regulators oversight over credit scoring models. I stand with Congressman Lawson and his bill to ensure employers don't use credit files to discriminate in hiring decisions. I stand with Congresswoman Adams and her bill to put the power to dispute credit inaccuracies back into the hands of consumers. And I stand for my bill to give consumers free access to their credit scores directly from the three national credit reporting agencies, with no strings attached. Madam Speaker, I urge my colleagues to stand with us, stand with the consumers. Support us and your constituents. Vote ``yes'' for this bill and ``no'' on the MTR. Madam Speaker, I yield back the balance of my time. The SPEAKER pro tempore. Without objection, the previous question is ordered on the motion to recommit. There was no objection. The SPEAKER pro tempore. The question is on the motion to recommit. The question was taken; and the Speaker pro tempore announced that the noes appeared to have it. Mr. HILL of Arkansas. Madam Speaker, on that I demand the yeas and nays. The yeas and nays were ordered. The SPEAKER pro tempore. Pursuant to clause 9 of rule XX, this 5- minute vote on the motion to recommit will be followed by 5-minute votes on passage of the bill, if ordered, and the motion to suspend the rules and pass S. 3201. This will be a 5-minute vote. The vote was taken by electronic device, and there were--yeas 201, nays 208, not voting 20, as follows: [Roll No. 30] YEAS--201 Abraham Aderholt Allen Amash Amodei Armstrong Arrington Babin Bacon Baird Balderson Banks Barr Bergman Biggs Bilirakis Bishop (NC) Bishop (UT) Bost Brady Brindisi Brooks (AL) Brooks (IN) Buchanan Bucshon Budd Burchett Burgess Calvert Carter (GA) Carter (TX) Case Chabot Cheney Cline Cloud Cole Collins (GA) Comer Conaway Cook Craig Crawford Crenshaw Cunningham Curtis Davidson (OH) Davis, Rodney DesJarlais Diaz-Balart Duncan Dunn Emmer Estes Ferguson Finkenauer Fitzpatrick Fleischmann Flores Fortenberry Foxx (NC) Fulcher Gaetz Gallagher Gianforte Gibbs Gohmert Golden Gonzalez (OH) Gooden Gosar Gottheimer Granger Graves (GA) Graves (LA) Graves (MO) Green (TN) Griffith Grothman Guest Guthrie Hagedorn Harris Hartzler Hern, Kevin Herrera Beutler Hice (GA) Hill (AR) Holding Hollingsworth Horn, Kendra S.
