H.R. 9900 was introduced by Mr. Davidson on July 23, 2026 and referred to the House Committee on Financial Services. The bill would amend 12 U.S.C. 1786(d)(2) by striking the 20 percent total-membership turnout language and replacing the 7-to-30-day voting notice period with not less than 90 days.

Current 12 U.S.C. 1786(d)(2) still requires approval by a majority of voting members in a vote in which at least 20 percent of total membership participates, and still sets notice not more than thirty nor less than seven days before the vote.
Assessments
Davidson introduced H.R. 9900 in the 119th Congress to eliminate the 20 percent turnout requirement and extend the voting period to at least 90 days, which materially matches the promised reform and counts as a serious same-term legislative attempt. However, the evidence shows the bill was only introduced and referred to committee, and current 12 U.S.C. 1786(d)(2) still retained the targeted federal barriers. Because the promised statutory change was not enacted, the outcome was not delivered, but the effort badge is warranted.
