Tim Rood, a prominent voice on the Senate nomination process, has raised concerns over Jonathan McKernan's nomination to the CFPB. He cites potential delays due to a Democratic request for 30 hours of floor time for discussion. With ongoing debates about budget cuts led by Russell Vought, Rood suggests McKernan might not have been adequately consulted on recent staffing changes, hinting at a disconnect with the administration's strategy. David Dworkin urges Democrats to act swiftly in supporting McKernan's nomination to ensure the CFPB's mission remains intact.
Rood suggested that the Democratic demand for 30 hours of floor time before voting could delay the nomination of McKernan, further complicating Senate priorities.
The disconnection in consultation between McKernan and recent agency changes points to a potential misalignment with the administration's vision for CFPB.
Dworkin emphasized that CFPB supporters, primarily Democrats, should expedite McKernan's confirmation to align with the agency's mission, even if he isn't their top choice.
Without swift action, McKernan's withdrawal from consideration could lead to undesirable outcomes for CFPB advocates.
