President Donald Trump’s executive order enabling the speedy removal of thousands of career federal managers is now on hold as it relates to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB), as a lawsuit challenging the policy moves forward.
A Feb. 14 order signed by U.S. District Judge Amy Berman Jackson bars the Trump administration from deleting or removing CFPB data from the bureau’s systems and from firing any CFPB employee without cause or issuing them a notice of reduction in the workforce.
