Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC)

Acting SEC Chairman Uyeda requests pause of court proceedings on climate-related disclosure rules

Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC or Commission) Acting Chairman Mark Uyeda said he directed Commission staff to ask the US Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit to not schedule for argument the case on the SEC’s climate-related disclosure rules. Mr. Uyeda said this would allow the Commission to determine the appropriate next steps, considering the recent change in the Commission’s composition and the recent presidential memorandum regarding a regulatory freeze.

The disclosure rules, which would require registrants to include certain climate-related information in their registration statements and annual reports, were voluntarily stayed by the Commission in April 2024 pending the court’s judicial review of the consolidated challenges to the rules.
