Description

A coalition of states, led by Oregon Attorney General Dan Rayfield, is asking the court to prevent the Trump administration from requesting $0 in funds for the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau's operations and to order it to request money from the Federal Reserve to fulfill its duties as required by the law.

The Democratic attorneys general of 21 states and Washington, D.C., are suing the Trump administration for its attempts to defund the Obama-era federal agency created to protect Americans from consumer fraud and discriminatory lending.
