The Supreme Court will soon hear a case challenging the CFPB's funding structure.
Housing groups also warned of chaos in the industry if CFPB's funding is upended.
But the Supreme Court threat to the CFPB's funding structure "would raise significant concerns for the stability of the housing market and the financial system more broadly," Chopra said.
"Reverting to a system without these regulations would create uncertainty for the mortgage industry and the economy," Chopra said.
At this point, it's unclear how broadly the Supreme Court will rule, and if it will strike down the CFPB's funding structure entirely.
