In Committee
Summary
This bill would refocus the Federal Reserve's statutory mandate on price stability alone by removing the "maximum employment" objective. It would amend Section 2A of the Federal Reserve Act (12 U.S.C. 225a) to replace the phrase "maximum employment, stable prices," with "stable prices," making price stability the explicit statutory objective for the Federal Reserve and the Federal Open Market Committee across the United States.
