In celebration of the Supreme Court’s recent decision that Title VII covers LGBTQ+ workers, please join NTEU 335 in asking Director Kraninger to take steps to protect ALL Bureau employees from discrimination by maintaining our grievance and official time rights.

We demand the following: 

1. Full protection from discrimination for CFPB employees. Title VII civil rights are essential to employee rights and protect us legally from discrimination based on race, gender, sexuality, or age, but the right to sue is not enough. It is inherently reactive and can be a long, arduous and prohibitively expensive process. But the union offers employees preventative protections that are accessible to all. Bureau management wants to weaken these union protections, by diminishing the grievance process and restricting the use of work time for union business. Director Kraninger is trying to force these changes on us by refusing to bargain with the union and sending her proposals to the anti-employee Federal Services Impasses Panel. The Director must reverse this decision, come back to the bargaining table, and preserve these crucial anti-discrimination protections for CFPB employees. Read more about what’s at stake. 

2. A public statement that CFPB affirms LGBTQ+ protections under the Equal Credit Opportunity Act (ECOA). When it comes to anti-discrimination policy, Director Kraninger has promised to “follow the law.” Now that SCOTUS has confirmed that discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity violates employment law, the Director must be clear with industry that the Bureau will extend the same protections for LGBTQ+ consumers under ECOA. 

Sign below to tell Director Kraninger and the rest of the CFPB management that you demand a robust ECOA policy and full civil rights through our union contract!
