the fair credit reporting act (fcra) was a landmark piece of legislation for several reasons
Fair Credit Reporting Act The Fair Credit Reporting Act, 15 U.S.C. § 1681 (“FCRA”) is U.S. Federal Government legislation enacted to promote the accuracy, fairness, and privacy of consumer information contained in the files of consumer reporting agencies. It was intended to protect consumers from the willful and/or negligent inclusion of inaccurate information in their credit reports. To that end, the FCRA regulates the collection, dissemination, and use of consumer information, including consumer credit information.[1] Together with the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act ("FDCPA"), the FCRA forms the foundation of consumer rights law in the United States. It was originally passed in 1970,[2] and is enforced by the US Federal Trade Commission, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau and private litigants.
Congressional Accountability Act of 1995 The Congressional Accountability Act[2][3] was passed by vote of 98-1 in the Senate and 390-0 in the House.[4]
