Representing over 1,100 workers nationwide at the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. CFPB workers have returned over $21 billion to millions of Americans since 2012 www.nteu335.org

Russ Vought has ordered CFPB workers across the US to move to DC. He wants everyone he can't fire to quit so consumers have less protection. We asked CFPB Union members how this shameful and illegal act affects them:

Update: Our sister Helen has undergone her procedure and is now recovering from brain surgery. After Vought cut benefits, she needs money for expenses, and needs YOUR help. Helen's kids rely on her every day. Can she rely on you? gofund.me/2350f7f63. Adjust the “tip” to 0% and see the disclaimer.

Russell Vought is about to testify before the House Financial Services Committee for an update on the CFPB. He needs to answer for his attempts to dismantle the agency, which has cost American consumers billions due to dropped enforcement actions and abandoned rulemaking efforts.

The Banking Committee Minority Staff calculated that the Trump Administration’s attack on the CFPB has cost American consumers $19 billion. They analyzed documents from the CFPB, reports by other federal agencies, and publicly available data, breaking down the costs to consumers into four major categories:

The Trump Administration permanently dismissed at least 22 enforcement actions to redress more than $3.5 billion in alleged harm to consumers, $3.5 billion of potential restitution that would have gone directly into Americans’ bank accounts. This number includes only the enforcement actions with decided monetary amounts – the Trump Administration dropped additional cases against big financial institutions and giant corporations that likely would have resulted in billions more being returned to Americans.
The Trump Administration dropped, reduced, or failed to distribute payments from 23 settlements or consent orders against companies—including repeat offenders—that cost consumers up to $225 million.
The Trump Administration, working with Republicans in Congress, rescinded CFPB rules and guidance that could have saved consumers up to $15 billion in overdraft fees and credit card late fees.
The CFPB gutted its Consumer Complaint Program, which likely cost $40 million in direct consumer relief.

“If the company can simply turn, go behind the scenes and take a shortcut and undo years of work simply because they know the right people or have whispered in the right ears, it's incredibly corrosive to the ability of the government to pursue public justice."

“We’ve been fighting to keep this agency open so we can protect American consumers since February 2025,” Doug Wilson, an enforcement attorney who has worked at the CFPB for almost a decade, told Bloomberg Law. “We’re still fighting.”
