Ricketts highlighted successes at the State of Nebraska Department of Banking and discouraged overreliance on the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB).\n\n\u201cAs Governor of Nebraska, I had a Department of Banking, and if any of our consumers in Nebraska came and approached us with a problem, no matter how big the bank was, we would investigate to make sure that that consumer got the resolution they needed from whatever problem they had,\u201d Ricketts said. \u201cTake the example of crypto kiosk ATM scams.

It wasn\u2019t the CFPB that did that \u2014 it was the State of Nebraska Department of Banking.
