Please join the Harvard Journal on Legislation for our annual symposium, this year entitled Filling the Breach: States’ Role in Protecting Consumers Amid Federal Administrative and Judicial Pullback. Over the course of the day, speakers will discuss the role of federalism in consumer protection law.

This afternoon panel with Seth Frotman, Brad Lipton, and Julie Morgan—the chief legal team at the CFPB during the Biden administration—will discuss lessons they’ve learned and their ideas as to where consumer protection is headed next.

  • Brad Lipton, Director of Corporate Power and Financial Regulation at the Roosevelt Institute and Former Senior Advisor to the General Counsel at the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau
