Civil Investigative Demand Reform Act of 2025 This bill revises the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau’s (CFPB’s) civil investigative demand process. The demand process is used to gather information relevant to a violation of consumer financial law before formal proceedings. Under the bill, such demands must be issued and served no later than six years after the date of the violation. The demand must also provide specific reference to particular facts regarding the violation. The bill establishes a process that allows an advising attorney to submit questions on behalf of a person compelled by a demand to appear for oral testimony. The bill also allows for judicial review if the CFPB denies a petition to set aside or modify a demand. These petitions must be treated as confidential. In addition, the bill expands the grounds on which a petitioner may seek relief from such a demand to include a demonstration that the demand (1) is unduly burdensome, expensive, and outside the scope of the inquiry; (2) is unreasonably cumulative or duplicative; or (3) can be obtained from some other source that is more convenient, less burdensome, or less expensive.

CONSUMER FINANCIAL PROTECTION BUREAU (CFPB) ENFORCEMENT AUTHORITY: Sign-on opposing H.R. 1653, bill that weakens CFPB Enforcement Authority. Rep. Andy Barr (R KY-06) has led another bad bill aimed at changing the way the CFPB functions. But this time, it's a bi-partisan bill. Rep. Gonzalez (D TX-24) and Rep. Moskowitz (D FL 23) have also co-sponsored the bill. This BAD bill gives lawbreakers tools to delay enforcement when they break the law and makes it harder for the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) to investigate and bring enforcement actions returning money to consumers when Big Banks, Big Tech, credit bureaus, debt collectors, predatory lenders and others engage in wrongdoing and hurt people. SUPPORT FOR CONSUMER FINANCIAL PROTECTION BUREAU'S (CFPB): Senator Tim Scott has proposed zeroing out the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau's (CFPB) independent and constitutional funding stream. This is an existential threat to the future of a robust CFPB that can protect people from scams, rip-offs, and discrimination from big banks, Big Tech, and fringe financial firms. This letter describes the important mission of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau's CFPB and how the CFPB helps protect people from predatory lenders, lending discrimination, abusive debt collectors, unfair credit reporting, and so much more.
