The U.S. Court of Appeals in D.C. reinstated a lower court's order blocking the Trump administration's plan to significantly reduce staff at the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB). The ruling prevents layoffs that would have cut the agency's workforce by 90%, affecting approximately 1,400 employees.
