This news is about a big fight over the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB)! The CFPB is like a superhero for people's money, making sure banks and other companies treat us fairly. The Trump administration wanted to get rid of almost all the CFPB's workers, leaving only a few people. This would have made it hard for the CFPB to protect us.
- The CFPB helps people when banks or other money companies aren't fair.
- The Trump administration planned to fire most CFPB workers.
- A judge stopped the firings, at least for now.
| Fact | Number |
|---|---|
| Original number of CFPB workers | 1700 |
| Number of workers the administration wanted to keep | 5 |
| Percentage of workers planned to be fired | 95% |
