Tomorrow, Congressman Huizenga will chair a Monetary Policy and Trade Subcommittee hearing examining proposals to reform the Federal Reserve. The hearing will include a vigorous discussion on Congressman Huizenga's legislation to reform the Federal Reserve.  This legislation is currently in draft form and has not been officially introduced. A copy of the fed reform discussion text is available here. This hearing will be a continuation of the committee's work to make "the Fed" more transparent as well as more accountable to the American people.
