Protecting Private Job Creators Act

This bill permanently exempts fixed-income securities (like bonds, notes, and certificates of deposit) from a specific SEC disclosure rule (Rule 15c2-11) that was being applied to debt markets without proper regulatory process. It directly affects businesses raising capital through fixed-income markets, which the bill states are critical for thousands of companies. The exemption removes requirements originally designed for equity markets but mistakenly applied to debt markets. This change makes permanent an existing SEC exemption granted in 2023 and 2024. The bill aims to maintain clear regulatory separation between equity and fixed-income markets.
