HB 1982 Makes Credit Security Freezes Permanent

A bill that would require credit report security freezes to stay until their removal is specifically requested by their subjects is before the Pennsylvania Senate, according to State Rep. Jim Cox (R-129)

A security freeze prohibits a credit reporting agency from releasing the consumer’s credit information to certain third parties. They automatically expire after seven years.

The bill, House Bill 1982, was unanimously passed by the State House on Oct. 7.

The prime sponsor is State Rep. Stephen Barrar (R-160)
