The head of the US Consumer Financial Protection Bureau has stepped down, and it is reported that he was fired by Trump
Rohit Chopra, who served as director of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) during the Biden administration, was removed from his post by the Trump administration, according to people familiar with the matter. Chopra published a letter to Trump on X on Saturday, which read "This letter confirms that my term as CFPB director has ended." Chopra was confirmed by the Senate in September 2021. His departure was expected partly because of his aggressive regulatory style and partly because of a 2020 Supreme Court ruling that made it easy for the president to fire the head of the CFPB.
