CFPB Director Cathy Craninger resigned Wednesday at the request of incoming President Biden to be sworn in, paving the way for his candidate to lead the powerful regulatory agency.

„I endorse the president’s constitutional prerogative to appoint senior officials within the government who support the president’s policy priorities, ensuring that our government responds to the will of the people as expressed in the presidential elections,” Craninger wrote.

Craninger was confirmed to lead the CFPB in December 2018 for a period that would last until 2023. She was the second full-time director of the agency, which was created under the Wall Street Dodd Frank 2010 Reform Act to oversee how banks, lenders, and credit card companies and debt officers deal with their clients.

Biden would have fired Craninger had she not resigned thanks to a Supreme Court ruling challenging the constitutionality of the Kraninger-backed CFPB and the Trump administration. The court found the CFPB structure unconstitutional in June and solved the problem by repealing a clause restricting when the president could fire the bureau chief.

Craninger’s resignation gives Biden the opportunity to quickly appoint an Acting Director to lead the CFPB to its final candidate.
