Supreme Court to Review Case that Could Decide Fate of Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB)

The Supreme Court has agreed to review a case that could have a major impact on the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB). The case centers around the Appropriations Clause of the Constitution, which states that "no money shall be drawn from the Treasury, but in consequence of appropriations made by law." The CFPB was created in the wake of the 2008 financial crisis and its regulations are now at risk of being overturned by the Supreme Court. The court is expected to hear the case in the spring of 2021.
