The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) is primarily focused on protecting consumers in the financial sector. Among its key responsibilities, it monitors consumer financial risks to identify and mitigate potential threats to consumers, promotes financial education to help individuals make informed financial decisions, and accepts consumer complaints to ensure accountability and transparency among financial institutions.

The responsibility of enforcing tax laws specifically related to home purchases does not fall within the scope of the CFPB's function. Tax laws are generally governed by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and other tax authorities rather than the CFPB. Therefore, while the CFPB plays a vital role in overseeing areas such as mortgages and credit products, enforcing tax laws is outside its jurisdiction, making that option the one that is not a responsibility of the Bureau.
