Supreme Court Case Could Upend Consumer Watchdog Agency Created by Elizabeth Warren

The CFPB was created by Elizabeth Warren to centralize consumer financial protection laws and hold companies accountable. It has returned over $17 billion to consumers.

The CFPB's independent funding angers some conservatives as an example of effective government overreach.

The CFPB helps consumers by providing a free complaints system and public database of issues. This enhances consumer power.

The Supreme Court case challenges CFPB's funding method, but risks massive chaos if overturned.

Warren argues the Court should respect Congress' role in structuring agencies, not substitute its own judgment.
