On Tuesday, the heads of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau's (CFPB) supervision and enforcement units, Lorelei Salas and Eric Halperin, resigned in response to the Trump administration's order to halt all work at the agency. The resignations were prompted by directives from acting CFPB Director Russell Vought, who instructed staff not to report to work and to seek approval for any tasks.
