Mulvaney Wants No Funding for Consumer Bureau

We could see this coming.

https://politicalwire.com/2018/01/18/mulvaney-wants-no-funding-consumer-bureau/

Politico: “Every quarter, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau formally requests its operating funds from the Federal Reserve. Last quarter, former director Richard Cordray asked for $217.1 million. Cordray, an appointee of President Barack Obama, needed just $86.6 million the quarter before that. And yesterday, President Donald Trump’s acting CFPB director, Mick Mulvaney, sent his first request to the Fed.”

“He requested zero.”
