Statement on Trump Administration Attempt to Sabotage CFPB Acting Director Leandra English
Allied Progress released the following statement form Karl Frisch, executive director of Allied Progress, regarding the Trump administration’s attempt to sabotage CFPB Acting Director Leandra English:
“Until the Senate confirms a new director, Leandra English should rightfully serve as acting director while the courts resolve the Trump administration’s attempt to sabotage her legitimacy. Consumers should expect the CFPB to continue its successful work holding big banks, credit card companies, payday lenders, and other powerful Wall Street institutions accountable. It’s time for the president to quit playing games and nominate a director who will stand up for consumers, who isn’t a creature of the very industries the CFPB regulates, and who can earn a bipartisan confirmation in the Senate.”
