A federal judge in Oregon ruled that the Trump administration broke the law when it tried to shut down the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. This is a win for every Oregonian who's ever been hit with a hidden fee or a loan that wasn't what they were promised.

AG Rayfield wins court order keeping Consumer Financial Protection Bureau funded

AG Rayfield is celebrating a ruling by a federal judge in Oregon keeping the CFPB funded. The CFPB is the federal agency that looks out for people in their dealings with banks, lenders, credit card companies, and debt collectors - and it has returned more than $21 billion to consumers. The judge ruled that the Trump administration broke the law when it tried to shut down the CFPB by refusing to ask for the money it needs to operate. AG Rayfield led the multi-state lawsuit.

“Protecting the wallets of working families, seniors, and small businesses should be a bipartisan priority. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau does critical work to protect consumers from financial tricks and traps, putting billions back in the pockets of people who’ve been harmed. This ruling is a win for every Oregonian who's ever been hit with a hidden fee or a loan that wasn't what they were promised.”

We are urging the Trump administration to stop undermining federal vaccine guidance. The actions by RFK Jr. and the Dept. of Health & Human services are reckless, not based on fact, and will leave more Oregonians vulnerable to preventable disease.

AG Rayfield calls on Trump administration to stop undermining federal vaccine guidance

AG Rayfield and a multistate coalition are urging HHS to keep federal vaccine recommendations grounded in science and medical evidence. The coalition warns that recent actions — including efforts to weaken the childhood vaccine schedule and sideline the experts responsible for developing federal vaccine recommendations — have created confusion and made it harder for states to rely on federal public health guidance.

“Every parent wants to make the right call for their kids, and they count on their doctors having clear, reliable guidance to help them do it. HHS’s changes have muddied the water with no new science to back them up, and Oregon families are paying the price when the preventable diseases come back.”

AG Rayfield urges Congress to set safety rules for artificial intelligence

What happened: AG Rayfield is calling on Congress to pass rules for the artificial intelligence (AI) industry. In a letter to congressional leaders from a bipartisan group of attorneys general, AG Rayfield warns that recent incidents show AI built without proper safeguards can put Americans at risk and threaten the country's financial system, critical infrastructure, and national security.

“Oregonians are trusting AI with more of their lives, using it at work, at school and at home, and they deserve to know that trust isn’t being abused. Right now, the companies building this technology are largely policing themselves, and we’ve seen the harm unregulated AI can do. Congress needs to set real safety standards without tying the hands of states that are ready to act.”

We are urging federal courts to keep basic safeguards in place for undocumented immigrants facing detention and arrest by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). We have filed briefs in two separate cases alongside a multistate coalition, asking the courts to reject unlawful actions by ICE.

AG Rayfield urges federal courts to reject unlawful ICE detention and arrests

AG Rayfield is urging courts to keep basic due process safeguards in place for undocumented immigrants facing detention and arrest by ICE. In one case, the coalition argues that a person held in ICE detention is entitled to a hearing before a judge to determine whether continued detention is necessary. In a second case, the coalition is defending a court order requiring ICE officers to have an individualized reason to believe someone is a flight risk before making a warrantless arrest.

“Under the law, the government cannot lock people up without a justification for doing so. The Constitution can’t be set aside for anyone’s partisan political agenda. We’re urging the federal government to simply follow the U.S. Constitution and the laws that have been enacted by Congress.”

“We stepped up to challenge this merger to limit rising costs for working families, to preserve competition, and to protect Oregon’s film production industry.

AG Rayfield permanently blocks Trump’s SNAP penalties

Today, a federal judge permanently blocked the Trump administration from penalizing states, including Oregon, with steep fines tied to their administration of the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP). The judge also struck down the administration’s attempts to restrict food access for lawful permanent residents.

“Since the beginning of Trump’s second term, we’ve all watched his administration play games with emergency food assistance,” said Attorney General Rayfield. “This is about parents’ ability to feed their kids, and partisan politics shouldn’t have any part in it. The court’s ruling means that Oregon will continue to effectively manage the SNAP program, and our vulnerable neighbors will get the food they need.”

“Every family deserves the freedom to make deeply personal health care decisions with their doctors. That principle is what this fight has always been about. We will keep standing up for the families in Oregon who deserve to make these decisions for themselves.”

Today, a federal judge denied the Trump administration's motion to narrow a sweeping court ruling that blocked HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s directive threatening to cut Medicare and Medicaid funding from providers of gender-affirming care for minors. The court made it clear that the original ruling still stands: Sec. Kennedy has no authority whatsoever to set medical standards of care for gender-affirming treatment. In our system, the states regulate the practice

AG Rayfield Delivers Win for Oregon Drivers Trapped in Predatory Auto Loans

Attorney General Dan Rayfield announced a settlement with Credit Acceptance Corporation (CAC), one of the nation's largest subprime auto lenders, that will deliver $694 million in cash and debt relief to consumers nationwide. Oregon worked with attorneys general from 40 other states on the settlement, and Oregonians and the state will receive just over $754,000.

“This settlement holds Credit Acceptance accountable for years of predatory lending and dealer abuse, and it puts money and real debt relief back in the hands of the Oregonians who were impacted,” said Attorney General Rayfield. “For struggling consumers, these kinds of loans can become a debt trap that is almost impossible to escape.”

Voting by mail in 2026: 3 things to know
1. The Supreme Court blocked Trump’s attempt to restrict delivery of mail ballots.
2. Voting by mail will proceed this year as it always has.
3. Oregon elections will be safe, secure, and accurate in November and beyond.

The U.S. Supreme Court blocked Trump’s attempt to restrict delivery of mail ballots.

On Sept. 14, the Supreme Court blocked a US Postal Service rule implementing Trump’s efforts to interfere with vote-by-mail elections

Voting by mail will proceed this year as it always has.

The Supreme Court’s order means voting by mail will happen as it always has: in Oregon, eligible voters will receive a ballot by mail and can return it via mail or to a drop box by 8pm on Election Day

Oregon elections will be safe, secure, and accurate in November and beyond.

The Constitution is clear: the federal government cannot interfere with our elections. Oregon voters can be confident that our elections will be safe, smooth, and accurate as they always have been.

AG Rayfield takes action to stop Trump administration rule punishing immigrants
for using public benefits

Today, AG Rayfield took action to stop a new Trump Administration rule that would punish immigrants for using public benefits they’re legally allowed to use, like food assistance. This new rule changes who counts as a “public charge,” the government’s term for someone likely to need long-term government support to get by. It would allow immigration officers to deny green cards to people simply because they or a family member used help they were entitled to.

“The Trump Administration’s plans would make our communities less healthy and less safe,” said Attorney General Rayfield. “This rule would attack our neighbors and deny them access to critical services that they’re legally allowed to use.”

AG Rayfield opposes move to create more barriers for immigrant communities

What happened: We are opposing yet another move by the Trump administration to impose heartless barriers to immigrant communities. A new proposed rule from the Dept. of Homeland Security would change the process for getting employment authorization documents – and it would leave asylum applicants unable to work for long periods, creating workforce shortages, reducing state revenues, and adding costs to local systems like emergency healthcare, shelters, and food banks.

“Asylum seekers come here following the law, wanting nothing more than to work and support their families. This rule just makes sure people who are legally allowed to be here can’t support themselves. That’s cruel, and it will cost Oregon businesses, taxpayers, and families who rely on the same food banks and shelters.”
