In early September, Cordray attended the American Federation of Labor and Congress of Industrial Organizations, where he spoke about income inequality in America. He did not, however, answer a question directed toward him about his potential gubernatorial bid, according to the Washington Post. Cordray has recently been under fire to go public with his intentions. e most recent prod came from Sen. Jeb Hensarling (R-Texas), who wrote the director demanding, "your categorical denial that political consideration have informed any aspect of your decisions, orders, and communications relating to the rule; your assurance that all records relating to this rulemaking will be preserved; and confirmation that you intend to serve your full statutory term as Bureau Director, or, if you do not intend to serve your full term, confirmation of the date on which you intend to resign from office." e letter was spurred when two separate publications reported that Cordray was attempting to fast-track rules through the CFPB. e Republican Governor's Association has also attempted to obtain information via the Freedom of Information Act as to whether or not Cordray had been in contact with the Chairman of the Hamilton County Democratic Party, as well as copies of correspondence he may have had from his @consumerfinance.gov email account. When asked about his intention at the Labor Day festivities, Cordray brushed the question off, according to the Washington Post. "I don't have anything to say about that," he said.
