The Bush administration proposes giving the Federal Reserve new powers to safeguard stability and would dissolve bodies like the Office of Thrift Supervision and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission. Treasury Secretary Paulson outlines a plan aiming to centralize oversight, with Congress and leaders like Rep. Barney Frank and Sen. Charles Schumer weighing competing ideas as the credit crisis fuels debate. The move follows a Fed intervention that let investment banks borrow from the central bank, part of Bear Stearns rescue.
