CFPB employees were told Sunday to work remotely because their Washington, D.C., headquarters would be closed through Feb. 14, according to a memo.

The order to shutter the agency’s headquarters follows another order issued Saturday by Mr. Vought, who also leads the Office of Management and Budget, telling agency employees to halt nearly all their work.

The Trump administration has ordered the agency, created by Congress and funded by the Federal Reserve, to halt most activity and close its headquarters.
