This is great news – and if your congressman/woman hasn’t cosponsored HR 1207, ask them to cosponsor it today! Also ask your senators if they will cosponsor S 604!

For reference, the house bill HR 1207 is called the “Federal Reserve Transparency Act of 2009″ and S 604 is called “Federal Reserve Sunshine Act of 2009″.

FREEDOM!!!!

Audit the Fed http://toastyaroma.com/blog/hr-1207-hearings-official-audit-the-fed/ http://toastyaroma.com/blog/hr-1207-hearings-official-audit-the-fed/#comments Thu, 10 Sep 2009 10:24:57 +0000 Jeff http://toastyaroma.com/blog/?p=154 Hearings on HR 1207, Ron Paul’s Federal Reserve transparency bill, will be conducted on Friday, September 25th at 9 AM. This is confirmed by Ron Paul, who has confirmed with Barney Frank, the House financial services committee chairman.

Hopefully, HR 1207 will receive a standalone up or down vote on its own merits and will not be tacked onto another bill and watered down.  Please contact your representatives and request that they first cosponsor the bill, and if they already have, ask that they support a standalone vote on HR 1207.

Why the not-so-federal reserve has been able to conduct its operations in near total secret to this date is completely beyond me.  The American people are ready to find out where all the money has gone.  Once they know, they will hopefully realize that the Federal Reserve has never been, and certainly is not now, necessary for the US economy to thrive.  Congress should take back the power of money creation from the greedy, power hungry, unconstitutional financial overlord known as the federal reserve.  Only then will we have a stable economy and a government that is truly limited in its spending abilities.

Be sure to watch the hearings on Friday, September 25th at 9:00 AM!  This is history in the making!
