“The Progressive Left’s Push to Reset the Fed’s Legal Mandates” with Paul Kupiec

AIER’s Bastiat Society program in Washington, DC will host an in-person event with Paul Kupiec, a senior fellow with the American Enterprise Institute in Washington, DC.

The Biden administration and Democrats in Congress are only a few Senate votes away from reimagining the Federal Reserve as an institution that would enforce the progressive Left’s climate-change and income redistribution agendas. Instead of promoting stable prices, maximum employment, economic growth and equal opportunity for all, the Fed would be transformed into an institution that actively diverts bank credit toward politically-favored industries and racial and ethnic groups. Paul Kupiec will examine the prospect of the Federal Reserve mandating new socialist policies and why former Federal Reserve officials have not vocally denounced these developments for what they are: a direct attack on capitalism, free market driven investment, and Federal Reserve independence.
