Nearly two dozen states sue the Trump administration over funding for CFPB Open in Npr.org
Highlights
  • Twenty-one states sued the CFPB and its director, arguing withholding funds is unconstitutional and that the bureau should be funded from the Fed's earnings.
  • The suit argues the CFPB can be funded from the Fed's combined earnings, a mechanism critics say the White House wrongly rejects, risking funds in January.
  • Officials warn cutting funding could cripple the CFPB's ability to process complaints, undermining enforcement and protections.
