The semi-annual review of the CFPB is happening now. Just this year, the CFPB has:

- Proposed a rule to cap overdraft fees,
- Returned $80 million to Navy Federal Credit Union customers charged surprised overdraft fees

and much more! #DefendCFPB #ProtectConsumers

The plan is to install a head who is pro- industry. The worst financial services actors who have fought the CDPB - high interest payday and fintech predatory lenders will be in charge. As before.

I’m a co diner law expert, not an admin law attorney. But there are two different questions. First, can the CFPB be β€œdeleted”? No, not without Congressional approval. Second, can the CFPB and its mission be greatly harmed by this takeover? Yes, as we saw in Trump 1.0.
