The ruling enjoins agency and administration officials from deleting data, terminating employees (except for cause), and implementing a Feb 10 stop-work order. The judge also ordered the CFPB to rehire all employees fired after Feb 10, rescind contract cancellations, re-equip agency employees, and maintain certain services.<\/p><p>Both the CFPB and Acting Director Vought were sued by the National Treasury Employees Union, the CFPB Employee Association, and several others. The injunction\/order stays in effect until the court releases a ruling on the merits, summarized below:<\/p><ul><li>Whether the actions of the president and his CFPB appointees constituted \u201cmaking\u201d rather than \u201cimplementing\u201d the law, a power reserved for Congress;<\/li><li>Whether the February 10 stop-work order is a violation of the APA.<\/li><\/ul><p>A notice of appeal and request for stay have been filed in response to this preliminary injunction.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"uael-timeline-date-new\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"uael-date-new\"><div class=\"inner-date-new\"><div >March 28, 2025<\/div><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-repeater-item-601813b uael-timeline-field animate-border out-view\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"uael-timeline-widget uael-timeline-right\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"uael-timeline-marker\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"timeline-icon-new out-view-timeline-icon\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<svg aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"e-font-icon-svg e-far-calendar\" viewBox=\"0 0 448 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M400 64h-48V12c0-6.6-5.4-12-12-12h-40c-6.6 0-12 5.4-12 12v52H160V12c0-6.6-5.4-12-12-12h-40c-6.6 0-12 5.4-12 12v52H48C21.5 64 0 85.5 0 112v352c0 26.5 21.5 48 48 48h352c26.5 0 48-21.5 48-48V112c0-26.5-21.5-48-48-48zm-6 400H54c-3.3 0-6-2.7-6-6V160h352v298c0 3.3-2.7 6-6 6z\"><\/path><\/svg>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"uael-day-new uael-day-right\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"uael-events-new\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"uael-events-inner-new\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"uael-timeline-date-hide uael-date-inner\"><div class=\"inner-date-new\"><p >March 26, 2025<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"uael-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"uael-timeline-heading-text\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"uael-timeline-heading\">Congress Continues to Debate the Governance and Funding Structure of the CFPB<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"uael-timeline-desc-content\"> <p>The latest dialogue took place before the House Committee on Financial Services.
