A federal judge has issued a temporary injunction against the mass firings at the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) following a lawsuit led by federal labor unions against President Trump’s executive order aimed at downsizing federal agencies. The ruling prevents any dismissals unrelated to employee performance and safeguards the bureau's funding and data integrity. Subsequent actions to close CFPB's operations had been initiated, with over 100 employees already let go. This ruling is a significant step towards maintaining workforce stability as the case proceeds with a courtroom hearing set for March 3.
A federal judge temporarily blocked the mass firing of employees at the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau after an agreement was reached to protect employment and data.
The ruling halts the Trump administration’s efforts to dismantle the CFPB, ensuring employees cannot be terminated without legitimate performance-related reasons.
