I don't really see this bill as partisan in nature, though it only currently has Dem support consumer protections are something both parties should be able to get behind.

It is partisan at the moment because, while it is neutral in nature, it only has support of the one party. They may get (enough) Republicans on board, but given the current political climate, I'd guess it's rather unlikely, unless Trump decides this is a good way to fuck with his nemeses i.e. FAA(N)G.
