Judge blocks Trump administration from dismantling CFPB

A federal judge on Friday blocked the Trump administration from effectively dismantling the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB), an early target of Elon Musk and the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE).

U.S. District Judge Amy Berman Jackson barred the administration from stopping work and firing employees at the CFPB and ordered the reinstatement of previously terminated workers. She also blocked the destruction of any CFPB records and ordered the recission of any “wholesale” contract cancellations issued on or after Feb. 11.

Jackson opened her decision quoting Musk’s post to the social platform X spelling doom for the agency: “RIP CFPB.”

“In sum, the Court cannot look away or the CFPB will be dissolved and dismantled completely in approximately thirty days, well before this lawsuit has come to its conclusion,” Jackson wrote in her 112-page opinion.

The National Treasury Employees Union and other groups sued acting CFPB Director Russell Vought last month over the agency’s apparent dismantling, arguing the effort violates the separation of powers between the branches of government.
