A federal judge has ruled that former President Donald Trump acted unlawfully when he fired two Democratic members of the National Credit Union Administration (NCUA) board, Todd Harper and Tanya Otsuka.
The court ordered their immediate reinstatement, finding that their removal violated legal protections for independent agency officials. This decision underscores the limits of presidential power over independent regulatory bodies. The ruling is seen as a significant win for those advocating for the independence of financial regulators.
The case may have broader implications for how future administrations interact with independent federal agencies.
