AFR Statement on CFPB Nominee Committee Vote

“Kraninger’s job as CFPB director would be to defend consumers against abuse at the hands of Wall Street banks and predatory lenders, but she has shown no sign of being willing to take on this vital role,” Linda Jun, senior policy counsel at Americans for Financial Reform. “Instead she has endorsed Mick Mulvaney’s leadership at CFPB, which has opened consumers to more harm. The full Senate should reject her nomination.”
