    Elizabeth Warren's career is marked by a series of historic firsts and lasting policy achievements. She is the first woman elected to the U.S. Senate from Massachusetts. Her creation of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau stands as one of the most significant regulatory reforms after the 2008 financial crisis, an agency that has returned billions of dollars to consumers. She has been named one of Time's 100 Most Influential People three times and was part of Time's Person of the Year in 2009. Her induction into the National Women's Hall of Fame in 2021 recognizes her lifelong work for economic justice.
