Business Owners Protection Act of 2025

Eliminates certain Dodd-Frank Act rulemaking authorities granted to the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) that the agency has not acted on: any Dodd-Frank power to decide whether to issue a rule for private parties is terminated if the SEC had not published a proposed rule or guidance by January 1, 2025. The SEC must publish and send Congress a list of the terminated authorities within 180 days of enactment. The change removes unused discretionary authorities rather than rescinding rules already issued under those authorities.
