BOISE, Idaho (CBS2) — BOISE, Idaho – U.S. Senators Jim Risch of Idaho and Rand Paul of Kentucky have introduced the Federal Reserve Transparency Act, commonly referred to as the "Audit the Fed" legislation. This bill aims to mandate a comprehensive audit of the Federal Reserve's operations and enhance congressional oversight of its decision-making processes.

"Idahoans deserve to know what the Federal Reserve is doing to our nation’s economy," said Risch. "Congress must hold the Fed accountable and pull back the curtain on the actions of this unelected Washington establishment."

Paul emphasized the significant influence of the Federal Reserve, stating, "No institution holds more power over the future of the American economy and the value of our savings than the Federal Reserve. It’s long past time for Congress to stop shirking its duty and hold the Federal Reserve accountable."

Jim Risch? Isn't he like a senior member on the banking committee or something? Maybe this will get done

...

Oh wait no, he's the chairman of the foreign relations committee. Interesting.

Boy, they really don’t want to be audited. When are we going to audit the Ukraine money?

“Too bad they don’t call Catherine Austin Fitts”

Good grief! As I was reading this they mentioned her on a podcast I’m listening to.

The Fed prints money, making it worth less.

That’s it.

Who needs an audit?
