Two Senate Democrats want to know what role Kathy Kraninger, who is President Trumps choice to lead the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, played in the administrations zero tolerance immigration policy as a White House aide.
Kraninger oversees the budgets for the Department of Homeland Security and the Justice Department, which have been implementing the controversial policy that has separated at least 2,000 children from their parents crossing the U.S.-Mexico border since April.
Kathy Kraninger helps oversee the agencies that are ripping kids from their parents, Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) said Tuesday on Twitter.
Warren said she would put a hold on Kraningers nomination to be director of the consumer bureau and fight it at every step until she turns over all documents about her role in this.
