WASHINGTON, Sept 8 (Reuters) - The U.S. Comptroller of the Currency on Wednesday proposed rescinding recently updated fair lending rules, as the agency begins work on drafting a new, unified regulation with other bank watchdogs. Under the proposal, the OCC would go back to the previous 1995 regulations for the Community Reinvestment Act, a 1977 fair lending law. The OCC under President Joe Biden has said it would prefer a new, unified update to those rules, as the agency shares responsibility for enforcing the law with the Federal Reserve and Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.
