President Obama Should Make Recess Appointment For Consumer Financial Protection Bureau
Dear Friend,
Earlier this month, 44 Republican Senators pledged to filibuster the
nomination of anyone to head the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau
unless the agency itself is significantly weakened.
This threat makes it much more likely that President Obama will have to
use his constitutional authority to make a recess appointment to fill the
top slot at the agency.
A number of great progressive groups and leading academics have signed a
letter to President Obama supporting a recess appointment. And now I've
signed it too.
I hope you join me in co-signing the letter. You can read it and add your
name to it at the link below.
Thanks for being you,
very warmly,
John
