"Adopting a rules-based strategy for monetary policy would not only strengthen our economy but improve opportunity for millions of Americans. The ad-hoc approach currently being employed by the Fed continues to create uncertainty for consumers and investors alike which acts as an anchor on our economy. I am hopeful that with a Trump Administration soon in the White House, House-passed legislation such as the FORM Act and the Financial CHOICE Act will gain even greater traction as positive ways to improve our nation's monetary policy." | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
