Warren Urges End to Re-Arguing Consumer Bureau’s Structure

U.S. Senator Elizabeth Warren said her Republican colleagues should stop arguing over “settled decisions” and confirm Richard Cordray to lead the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.

Warren, speaking today at a Credit Union National Association conference in Washington, said bureau opponents must move beyond debating its structure, which was set by the 2010 Dodd-Frank Act. The Massachusetts Democrat, who set up the bureau before being elected to Congress last year, has pledged to fight Republican efforts to alter its structure or funding.
