in the executive branch, would serve her well in this important position. We trust she shares our interest in

they deserve.

said NAFCUPreside nt and CEODan Berger. "Althou gh NAFCUconsistently argues that credit unions should not be
subject to the CFPB'senforcement authority, we have had a stron g working relationship with Acting Director

unions over the past few month s. We plan to continue this relation ship with Ms. Kraninger."

"Credit unions have faced an unprecedented amount of regu latory burden over the last several years. We look
forward to working with new leade rship at the bureau, and urge the new director to protect consumers by
addressing bad actors in the marketplace , without unnecessarily limiting the ability of credit unions to serve their
members, "Nussle said. "We are hopeful that the new director will recognize the unique stru cture of credit unions

Jim Nuss le, Credit Union National Association. 6/17 /1 8

"CFSA congratulates Kathy Kraninger on he r nomination to serve as CFPBDirecto r. The CFPBneeds a Direc tor who
will listen to consumers and rely on unbiased data and research to guide its work. Ms. Kraninger is a longtime
public se rvant and we hope that under her leadership the Bureau fulfills its intended mission as a tru ly
independent, non-parti sa n agency that se rves American consumer s."
Dennis Shaul, Community Financial Services Association, 6/ 18/18

"Kathy Kraninger has been part of Mick Mulvaney's effort to stop BCFPabuse of power and make sure the bureau
enforces the law as Congre ss intended. During confirmation hearings, the Senate should ask about how BCFPred
tape is harming consumers, entrepreneurs, Main Street banks, and credit unions and get Ms. Kraninger's views on
the scope and limits oftJ1e bureau 's power. At the same time, Congress must to do its part to rein in th e
unchecked power of the BCFPby making the director removable by the president and subjec t to Congressional
appropriations."
John Ber/au, Competitive Enterprise Institute, 6/18/18

"Kathy Kraninge r has been a trusted adviser to leader s in Congress and the Executive Branch for years. She is
highly regarded for her intelligence, competence and exceptional profe ssionalism in dealing with complex policy
matters. Having worked with Kathy, I know that her homeland security background will bring depth on issues such
as cybersecurity that are challenging financial institutions of every size. Kathy values problem solving over politics. I
expect that her collaborative approach will certain ly be welcomed by community banks in Texas and across the
nation."
Chris Furlow, Texas Bankers Associa tion , 6/18/18

"The Bureau has an important mission to enforce consumer protections laws, and properl y designed and led, it is
capable of great good . We have see n some of that good under the lea dership of Acting Director Mulvaney, and I
have no doubt that will continue under the leadership of Kathy K.raninger.I am especially pleased that President
Trump nominated an individual with management and budget exper ience-two qualiti es that are desperat e ly
needed at an agency which has been plagued with cost ove rrun s and unnecessary spending and does not have a
full-time and an independent Inspector General. I'm confident that , under Kathy's leadership, gone are the days of
wasting a more than $240 million of taxpayer money to renovate a building it doesn 't even own and paying staff to
perform research that has nothing to do with the Bureau's mission. I look forward to working with Kathy, the
Trump Administration and House and Senate Democrat s to reform the Bureau into a law enforcement agency that
truly protects consumers and is accountable to the people 's elected repre se ntatives. "
Congressman Jeb Hensarling, 6/18/18
