THE GOP SHUTDOWN ISN'T OVER. In February, Vought told the Federal Reserve he was requesting $0 of $329m available because CFPB had too much money. Now he says we're running out. Instead of transferring funds, he's shutting us down & transferring all consumer protection cases to Pam Bondi's DOJ.

An excerpt from Russell Vought's public letter to the Federal Reserve Chair on February 7, 2025:

This letter is to inform you that for the Third Quarter of Fiscal Year 2025, the Bureau is requesting $0.
During my review of the Bureau’s finances, I have learned that the Bureau has a balance of
$711,586,678.00 in the Bureau of Consumer Financial Protection Fund. By law, I must take account
of this sum when determining the amount “reasonably necessary” for the Bureau to fulfill its statutory
authorities. Id. I have determined that no additional funds are necessary to carry out the authorities of
the Bureau for Fiscal Year 2025. The Bureau’s current funds are more than sufficient—and are, in
fact, excessive—to carry out its authorities in a manner that is consistent with the public interest.
In the past, the Bureau has at times opted to maintain a “reserve fund” for financial contingencies. But
no such fund is required by statute or necessary to fulfill the Bureau’s mandate. The Bureau’s new
leadership will run a substantially more streamlined and efficient bureau, cut this excessive fund, and
do its part to reduce the federal deficit.
Sincerely,
/s/ Russell T. Vought
Russell T. Vought, Acting Director

3 months ago I was ordered to stop doing any work tasks for the CFPB. I haven't been permitted to do our regular work since, all while DOGE has worked relentlessly to illegally fire 90% of staff. I spoke about what that means for consumers and democracy, and @nteu335.bsky.social's fight to #SaveCFPB

Sen. Jim Banks on the job held by a fired federal worker he mocked: "It was a woke job." Then in the next breath Banks admits he doesn't know what his job actually was.
