Trump administration

The industry’s biggest legislative victory in a decade made it to the finish line Thursday.

The CFPB is looking to rescind Obama-era policy that allowed it to punish banks and financial firms for unintentional discrimination.

The union representing employees at the CFPB is already fighting acting Director Mick Mulvaney's efforts to restructure the agency, and readying for a potentially larger conflict as rumors of layoffs swirl.

The administration is prolonging a decision on a permanent director for the agency to keep the interim chief in place until year-end or longer.

The public face of the Trump administration's revamp of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau is by no means working alone.

The group says Mulvaney, who also runs OMB, was not totally forthcoming with the Senate Budget Committee about the foreclosure of a property he owns in South Carolina.

Since taking office in November of last year, acting Consumer Financial Protection Bureau Director Mick Mulvaney's actions have sparked outrage from his critics seemingly at every turn, including several times just last week.

The international standards-setting body is weathering the infatuation with isolationism in the U.S. and elsewhere better than expected.

A panel of judges remained skeptical of claims by Leandra English, deputy director of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, that she is the rightful head of the agency. But they didn’t sound convinced that current acting Director Mick Mulvaney is, either.

Questions about the CFPB’s structure, high-profile enforcement actions and the acting director’s rift with Elizabeth Warren could dominate two days of hearings on Capitol Hill.
