Letter to the Honorable Mike Crapo, Chairman for the Senate Committee on Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs - Postpone CFPB Hearing Until Requested Documents are Provided

Letter

Dear Chairman Crapo:

A number of members of this Committee have requested relevant documents and other information from the Trump Administration in advance of Thursday's nominations hearing. To date, the Administration has not responded to these requests. If we do not receive responsive information in time to review it before Thursday's hearing, we will not be able to conduct the kind of oversight and questioning that allows the Senate to perform its constitutional role of providing advice and consent.

Accordingly, we respectfully ask that you work with the Trump Administration to provide us with the information and documents that have been requested so that we have sufficient time to review the material before Thursday's hearing. If the Administration is unwilling or unable to provide responsive information in a timely manner, we respectfully ask that you postpone Thursday's hearing on any nominee with outstanding information requests until such time as the information is available.

Sincerely,
