So, years ago, when I was being taken to court over a debt that didn't belong to me, the #ConsumerProtectionAgency gave me enough information to be my own lawyer and have the case thrown out (the debt in question was under someone else's social security number, and I demanded to see the loan paperwork, which proved the loan wasn't mine. #CPA provides advice and help to ordinary citizens (not #megarich #techbros and orange #grifters)!

Trump administration orders consumer protection agency to stop work, closes building

The Trump administration has ordered the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to stop nearly all its work, effectively shutting down the agency that was created to protect consumers after the 2008 financial crisis and subprime mortgage-lending scandal. Russell Vought is the newly installed director of the Office of Management and Budget. Vought directed the CFPB in a Saturday night email to stop work on proposed rules, to suspend the effective dates on any rules that were finalized but not yet effective, and to stop investigative work and not begin any new investigations. The agency has been a target of conservatives since President Barack Obama created it following the 2007-2008 financial crisis.
