Trump administration removes Democratic members of credit union watchdog [View all]
(The Hill) The Trump administration has fired two Democratic board members from the National Credit Union Administration (NCUA), the officials said Wednesday.
Todd Harper, one Democrat on the board, shared the news of his removal in a post on LinkedIn and said the firing was “just plain wrong.”
“The decision of the White House to fire me before the completion of my term is wrong. It violates the bipartisan statutory framework adopted by Congress to protect credit union members and their deposits,” Harper said in his statement.
Harper argued the firings were an attack on the NCUA and undermines the organization’s independence and work. The NCUA regulates credit unions and protects credit members.
