The Wisconsin case was filed a year ago, but it has been tied up as the Trump aides have fought, unsuccessfully so far, to have the charges dismissed.

The Notice of Proposed Rulemaking released by the CFPB would eviscerate longstanding fair lending and consumer protections in three dangerous ways:

The Trump administration is being open about its plans to violate Americans’ First and Fourth Amendment rights.

House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries is accusing Speaker Mike Johnson of undermining a White House proposal to extend expiring Affordable Care Act subsidies for two years as Congress stares down a fast-approaching deadline to avoid massive premium hikes. “It even appears that the Trump administration was ready to put forth a plan that would at least have been worthy of consideration, and that Mike Johnson tanked it,” Jeffries said at a press conference Monday. The New York Democrat was referring to a framework for extending the enhanced ACA tax credits that the White House was planning to release last week before the details were leaked and conservatives revolted, postponing rollout plans indefinitely. Many Congressional Democrats were cool to the blueprint, which would have paired an extension with other health policy changes sought by Republicans. But other Democrats called it a promising sign that President Donald Trump was finally getting ready to engage in ongoing negotiations over the future of the tax credits, which are due to sunset Dec. 31 without congressional action and around which Republicans are deeply divided. “Obviously, Mike Johnson has zero interest in protecting the health care of the American people,” said Jeffries, adding that while Republicans “consistently said” they would discuss an extension of the subsidies after the end of the shutdown, “now we get nothing but crickets.” A Johnson spokesperson did not immediately respond to a request for comment. Jeffries is now encouraging Republicans to sign onto a Democratic-led discharge petition to force a floor vote on legislation that would extend the subsidies for three years. The Senate is also set to take up a vote next week related to the tax credits — a fulfillment of a deal to end the government shutdown brokered between Senate Majority Leader John Thune and a group of Democrats — but still it’s unclear what Democrats will propose. A “straight extension of the Affordable Care Act tax credit,” appears to be “the only viable path forward,” said Jeffries.
