This bill (1) ends the Office of Competition and Innovation within the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB), and (2) restores the Office of Innovation at the CFPB. The Office of Competition and Innovation replaced the Office of Innovation in 2022. The original Office of Innovation was established in 2018.
