President Trump will withdraw Jonathan McKernan’s nomination as CFPB Director, as he nominates him as the Treasury Department’s Undersecretary of Domestic Policy, the New York Times and Law360 reported.
Montana’s governor signed Senate Bill 297 to overhaul key portions of the state’s Consumer Data Privacy Act and bring new protections for minors. The changes bring lower thresholds, updated exemptions, expanded notice requirements, new (to Montana) obligations for minors’ data, and more. Oh, and the bill removes the right to cure a few months ahead of schedule.
President Trump has signed a Congressional Review Act (CRA) resolution nullifying the CFPB’s controversial overdraft rule.
The rule was issued by the Biden Administration and had attracted opposition from Republicans on Capitol Hill and Trump Administration officials. House and Senate Republicans pushed a CRA resolution through Congress, which Trump has now signed, voiding the rule.
The traditional pillars of consumer credit are undergoing a profound transformation as “pay later” options, once a niche for specific shoppers, are now redefining how Americans spend and borrow.
Today, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB or Bureau) announced the withdrawal of 67 regulatory guidance documents, including interpretive rules, policy statements, and advisory opinions that have been issued since the Bureau’s inception in 2011. The withdrawn guidance documents impact most federal consumer protection laws, including the Consumer Financial Protection Act of 2010 (CFPA), Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA), Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA), Equal Credit Opportunity Act (ECOA), Truth in Lending Act (TILA), Electronic Fund Transfer Act (EFTA), and Military Lending Act (MLA).
