For context, this rollback is actually a compromise. Jeb Hensarling of Texas lead a contingent that wanted to roll back Dodd-Frank entirely but it didn’t have the votes in the Senate because it was split more evenly between parties.
Dodd-Frank has been unpopular with conservatives since it passed. So what the lobbyists did was convince small town democrats to cross parties and vote for the bill saying it would strengthen small banks. And maybe it did! We haven’t seen a small bank failure since it passed and a few typically fail every year.
But it also let bigger regional banks off the hook.
