Warren Statement on DC Circuit Court Order on Trump's Latest Attempt to Shut Down CFPB

Washington, D.C. - U.S. Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.), Ranking Member of the Senate Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs Committee, issued the following statement on the latest D.C. Circuit court order on the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau:

"Last night, the D.C. Circuit rejected the Trump Administration's latest request to shut down the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, refusing to lift the injunction that has prevented Russ Vought from carrying out his plan to eliminate the agency. Courts will also have a full chance to review Vought's most recent unlawful plan to sideline the CFPB by firing most of its remaining staff. We'll keep fighting for the agency that has returned more than $21 billion directly to Americans who were cheated or scammed by big banks and giant corporations."
