Social Security Retirement Trust Fund Will Run Dry In 2032 Unless Congress Acts
Tens of millions of Americans face potential reductions in Social Security and Medicare benefits as annual reports from the programs' trustees project accelerated insolvency for their respective trust funds.

New Consumer Protection Rule Turns Its Back On Fair Housing As Advocates Sue To Preserve Enforcement
The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) has issued a new rule significantly curtailing anti-discrimination efforts, a move described as one of the most consequential shifts in federal fair-lending policy in decades.

The suit challenges the CFPB's decision to end the disparate impact standard and limit special purpose credit programs, which are crucial for expanding credit access for marginalized communities. Plaintiffs assert the bureau failed to justify its departure from decades of settled Equal Credit Opportunity Act (ECOA) implementation and question the Acting Director's rulemaking authority.
