if the Fed cares to adopt a rule, fine, but Congress should not mandate a rigid rule.
Will you commit to us, here, that you will stay any Commission vote on that rule until after the inauguration?
I guess we will continue to hold you responsible for that obligation.
I believe that the President has deprived Congress and the American people an opportunity to hold the Fed accountable.
I believe that Chairman Frank at the time had this right and that there is that separate role.
I will resist any temptation to gavel down any outbursts on this side of the aisle at this point.
Going back to a pre-Dodd-Frank world does not help U.S. competitiveness nor growth.
A robust economy is needed for all. Unfortunately, this Administration has not provided that.
The $1.4 billion in cash was consistent with it too, but it doesn't make it right.
I am urging you to oppose that. Even former executive director of the fund who voted for the first bailout has come out against a third one.
I am concerned about Main Street and what is going on.
