Justices Hear Case on Consumer Financial Protection Bureau
1 hour, 38 minutesThe Supreme Court heard oral argument in Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) v. Community Financial Services Association of America, a case that could determine the fate of the federal agency. The justices will be deciding whether the CFPB's funding structure is unconstitutional. This case stemmed from the agency's Payday Lending Rule. Two associations filed suit citing the rule is invalid because the agency's funding violates the Appropriations Clause. The CFPB gets its money from the Federal Reserve, not Congress. The Federal Reserve receives its funding from Federal Reserve Banks. The CFPB was created in 2010 under the Dodd-Frank Act which was in response to the 2008 financial crisis. When this case came before the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit, they ruled against the CFPB. The federal government appealed to the nation's highest court. The justices have through June 2024 to issue a ruling.
