Bill information
Summary
A bill to provide enhanced protection against debt collector harassment of members of the Armed Forces.
Plain-language summary
This bill would strengthen protections for active-duty military members and service members against aggressive debt collection practices. Debt collectors are companies that try to recover money owed by contacting borrowers. The bill aims to limit how often and when debt collectors can contact service members, and may restrict collection tactics specifically targeting military personnel. The measure was recently introduced in Congress with bipartisan support from both Democratic and Republican sponsors.
