Win for consumers!

California court rules that violation of #ConsumerProtection laws is all that's needed to bring a case. No restrictive federal standing standards for CA state court. Doors to the courthouse remain open.

Defunding the CFPB = Defanging our Consumer Protection Watchdog.
Demand your elected officials stand up for hardworking consumers everywhere! Call 202-224-3121 and tell your representatives to #DefendCFPB!

The big brutal bill would cut Consumer Financial Protection Bureau funding to below what even CFPB directors from President Trump's first term determined was needed to protect consumers. #DefendCFPB

Today consumer advocates from across the country and workers at the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau held a press conference to warn of the harm HR1 would inflict on our communities across the country. #DefendCFPB

This is an obvious point, but cannot overstated. There is an enormous difference between deporting someone - where they get off a plane as a free citizen in their home country AND FUNNELING THEM INTO A BRUTAL PRISON FROM WHICH THEY HAVE NO CHANCE OF EVER EMERGING!!!

Today, I heard from CFPB employees who were illegally fired by Trump. These attacks don't just hurt these dedicated workers—they hurt all of us.

CFPB has returned $21 billion to consumers who have been scammed or wronged. I wonder why Trump and Elon Musk want to gut it...

Folks, Judge Amy Berman Jackson is about to start the hearing in NTEU v. Vought (this is the union case against everything happening at the CFPB). Not going to live post, but I'll send along any major developments.

In DC working out my #resist muscles 💪🏽 and fighting to #SaveCFPB. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau works to protect our money 💵 from unfair and abusive fees!

The CFPB has:

-Returned $20B to victims of financial fraud
-Cracked down on junk fees
-Fought against politically-motivated debanking
-Protected veterans from predatory lenders
-Protected consumers' data from corporate abuse

Oligarchs want to reverse all of this.

Blue Sky please make this go viral.
Federal workers are under attack.
Nicole was fired last night at 9pm from the CFPB.
Please call your representatives and senators and say save the CFPB. They need to feel so much pressure. Please share this. Please fight back. Together we can win.

The Muskrats have tried to lock CFPB staff out of our HQ. But our workforce is still committed to fighting for consumers! We have returned $21 billion to wronged consumers so far, and we’re not ready to stop!

Thank you to everyone who turned out to support CFPB Union workers yesterday! #solidarity

A billionaire spent over $270 million to help elect Trump and effectively bought a seat at the table. We're witnessing consequences of the Citizens United decision in real time.

Make no mistake: Trump’s first week was a catastrophe for many vulnerable people. But the biggest story was his startling initial moves from democracy to oligarchy.

My hope lies in Americans noticing this. robertreich.substack.com/p/trumps-fir...
