Uniformed Secret Service Police walk inside the perimeter of the White House in Washington on April 26. “The President’s purported or intended appointment of defendant Mulvaney as Acting Director of the CFPB is unlawful,” the lawsuit says. As Acting Director, I am filing this lawsuit to stand up for the CFPB,” English said in a statement. White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders said in a statement that the White House was aware of the lawsuit, but that the law is clear and that Mulvaney is the CFPB’s acting director. The White House has said it expects both Mulvaney and English to show up to work Monday morning.
