Sounds reasonable as most Republican ideas do. Only problem is there is always an ulterior motive when it comes to Republican ideas. The intention is not to promote fairness or bipartisanism. The intention is to reduce the autonomous nature and authority of the Bureau. If enacted, no doubt the membership appointed by the President would not be bi-partisan and would likely contain former members of the banking industry who are still on the payroll of those banks. Additionally, having Congress approve of the funding would likely cause the demise of the bureau unless it was serving the Republican (read 1%-ers) cause.
