5/25/2011--Introduced.
Prohibits the Secretary of the Treasury from requiring any financial institution or any other entity subject to regulation or oversight by the Secretary or pursuant to federal securities laws specified in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 to report suspicious transactions relevant to a possible violation of law or regulation, unless the appropriate U.S. district court issues an order finding that a warrant could be issued under the search and seizure provisions of the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure.

House Republican Conference Summary

The summary below was written by the House Republican Conference, which is the caucus of Republicans in the House of Representatives.

No summary available.

House Democratic Caucus Summary

The House Democratic Caucus does not provide summaries of bills.

So, yes, we display the House Republican Conference’s summaries when available even if we do not have a Democratic summary available. That’s because we feel it is better to give you as much information as possible, even if we cannot provide every viewpoint.

We’ll be looking for a source of summaries from the other side in the meanwhile.

United States Code

The United States Code is the compilation of permanent laws enacted by Congress. Temporary and other non-permanent laws do not appear in the United States Code. (About half of the United States Code is the law itself, called positive law. The other half is merely a compilation of the laws but has no legal significance.)
