Protect the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau from Devastating Cuts

Related Article: CFPB cuts can resume, divided appeals court rules - local3news.com - Friday, August 15, 2025, 12:57:38 PM Eastern Daylight Time

Target: U.S. Congress, President of the United States, and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau leadership

Goal: We call on Congress and the administration to immediately halt all efforts to downsize, defund, or dismantle the CFPB, and to restore its full capacity to protect consumers.

The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) was created after the 2008 financial crisis to protect everyday people from predatory banking and financial practices. Now, the agency faces unprecedented downsizing and threats to its very existence, jeopardizing vital protections for millions of consumers.

The CFPB has served as a critical watchdog for consumers, ensuring that big banks and financial institutions are held accountable. Recent actions by the administration—including canceling the agency's lease, firing or planning to cut more than 80% of its workforce, and pausing its vital work—threaten to gut the agency and leave consumers vulnerable.

This move comes despite a trial judge's attempt to block the near-shuttering of the agency, and a divided appeals court ruling that sidesteps the real harm being done to workers and the public. If these cuts go forward, it will be nearly impossible for the CFPB to recover and continue its mission.

We cannot allow powerful interests to dismantle one of the few agencies dedicated to protecting ordinary people from financial abuse. We demand immediate action to restore the CFPB and defend the rights of consumers everywhere.
