Washington — Americans will be able to get free copies of their credit histories every year and will gain new protections against identity thieves under legislation President Bush signed into law Thursday.
"People work hard to build up good credit histories and rely on their credit to move forward in life," Bush said.
The legislation renewed the Fair Credit Reporting Act. Under the legislation, consumers will be able to e-mail, call or write the three major credit bureaus for a free copy of their credit report and their credit score each year to help them understand why their credit was denied or approved.
