In support of this motion, Representative Paul has written an “Audit the Fed” post for the “America Speaking Out” website. Check it out here and show your support by voting for the idea and leaving a comment.
You can find out more about the motion to recommit here.
GOPers To Push Fed Audit
House GOPers will make a push to audit the Federal Reserve in a last-ditch effort to stop financial regulatory reform legislation, leaning on a popular proposal from Rep. Ron Paul (R-TX) to make their case.
The GOP will offer the Fed audit as a motion to recommit, the minority’s last chance to alter a bill before final passage. A motion to recommit is subject only to an up-or-down vote, not to debate or amendments.
The regulatory reform measure does have an audit provision in the conference report, but it is limited to loans made by the Fed during the height of the economic crisis. Paul’s bill would allow a total examination of the Fed’s books.
Paul’s legislation has 320 co-sponsors, including Dems as diverse as Reps. Jason Altmire (D-PA), a centrist, and Steve Cohen (D-TN), a liberal.
But it’s unlikely to pass as a motion to recommit, which would send the conference committee back to the drawing board for a third time. House and Senate Dems reached agreement Tuesday night on a revamped package after Sen. Scott Brown (R-MA) and Olympia Snowe (R-ME), 2 key GOPers who voted for the Senate version, said they could not vote for the first conference report. Negotiators ended up dropping a proposed $18B bank tax to help pay for the bill.
Call Congress and urge your representative to support Audit the Fed (especially if they’re a cosponsor) by voting for the motion to recommit on H.R. 4173. If final passage of the Dodd-Frank bill comes up for a vote, demand they oppose this latest government move to interfere in the economy.
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
House GOP Champions Paul’s “Audit the Fed”
Washington, D.C. – Congressman Paul was pleased today when House Republicans submitted a Motion to Recommit the financial regulatory reform bill as a last effort to include his provision to fully audit the Federal Reserve in the final version.
The conference committee failed to include this provision, supported by 320 Members of the House, in the final version of the massive reform bill, which grants sweeping new regulatory powers to the Federal Reserve, while doing nothing to address the root causes of current economic problems.
“It is foolish to grant more powers to the institutions that caused all the moral hazard and malinvestments that got us into this mess. It is doubly foolish to do so without any meaningful accountability or transparency,” stated Congressman Paul.
Unfortunately, the Motion to Recommit was defeated 198 to 229 and the final bill passed the House shortly afterwards

I needed to draft you one little bit of observation to be able to say thanks a lot the moment again on the precious solutions you have documented in this case. This is surprisingly generous of people like you to offer openly all that many of us might have sold as an ebook in order to make some profit for themselves, especially since you might have tried it in the event you decided. These good ideas as well acted to be a good way to know that some people have similar interest the same as my personal own to see significantly more in regard to this issue. I’m certain there are thousands of more pleasant situations up front for people who take a look at your website.

What you said made a lot of sense. But, think about this, what if you added a little content? I mean, I dont want to tell you how to run your blog, but what if you added something to maybe get peoples attention? Just like a video or a picture or two to get people excited about what youve got to say. In my opinion, it would make your blog come to life a little bit.

After reading a comment about the potential disaster of reverting back to the good old gold standard, I think we need to stop that fiat (legal counterfeit) money growing out of from the Fed. At least we would stop the inflation machine they use to fund their own security and prosperity.
