Calabries Omb -Rol
Calabria is currently a senior advisor to the Libertarian Cato Institute. In addition to his earlier role at FHFA, Calabria also served as the main attentive of vice -president Mike Pence, as a senior professional staff for the senate committee for bank, housing and urban affairs, and as a deputy assistant secretary for regret at HUD.
Calabria’s interim stint at CFPB can be part of a much greater role that he will play at OMB. Ackerman also tweeted that he had heard ‘ [Calabria] is responsible for bringing all independent agencies in the OMB. “That is a reference to Trump’s executive order On Tuesday, that all independent agencies in the jaw ‘contribute’ under his more direct control.
The executive order provides an overview of the Federal Trade Commission (FTC), Federal Communications Commission (FCC), Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the Federal Reserve. “Now they will no longer impose rules on the American people without supervision or accountability,” is the order.
What Calabria proposes for the CFPB
In an interview with Housingwire Senior Reporter Flavia Nunes in July, Calabria spoke about how the CFPB could change under a Trump administration.
“I don’t think the CFPB will leave – as much as it would be fun. But I do think you will see a difference in the attitude that matters in the mortgage industry, in terms of enforcement and obligations. The approach of the republicans of the CFPB is to say that there are misconduct; We go after the bad guys. This [Biden] Administration says the same, and that is where the overlap is. The difference is this [Biden] Administration is also of the opinion that we will use the CFPB to choose winners and losers to redistribute our friends and to enter into a lot of social engineering. And that is a much different approach than just going after the bad guys, “said Calabria.
“Write large in the field of compliance and legal costs, Trump’s CFPB will be considerably lower. After Dodd-Frank, one of the problems has been that it costs so much more to arise. A huge amount is due to the legal costs. It is not as if the bad guys are getting wild; You would still see enforcement. “
Bureau stands for lawsuits
The CFPB is currently confronted with two lawsuits about the actions of the Trump administration. A lawsuit brought by the City of Baltimore and the Economic Action Maryland Fund (EAMF), which was submitted on 12 February, has made Vough’s efforts to conclude the financing of the office. On February 13, the claimants and defendants in the lawsuit submitted a joint motion stating that they agreed to a provisional order for some efforts of the CFPB or to disrupt the financing or close the department. The order will be on 28 February.
In a separate lawsuit that was brought at the end of last week, a federal court of the court forbade the office temporarily to take more staff at the earliest until March 3. Judge Amy Berman Jackson of the court has also excluded the CFPB from “removing” data or “deleting” and transferring money in its reserve fund.
