The Supreme Court rejected a claim that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau’s (CFPB) funding mechanism is unconstitutional, removing a legal challenge that had the potential to overturn all the agency’s regulations and enforcement actions.
In a 7-2 decision issued Thursday, the court overturned a ruling by the U.S. Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals that the agency’s funding mechanism violated the appropriations clause of the U.S. Constitution.
The CFPB, created by Congress as part of the Dodd-Frank Act of 2010, is funded from the earnings of the Federal Reserve System and is not part of the federal budget.
