Fed confirmation hearings risk mission creep at the Fed
The Senate Banking Committee will next Thursday question two Biden nominees to the Fed Board, Lisa Cook and Sarah Bloom Raskin, amid critique that they would broaden the Fed’s mission beyond its core duties. The piece accuses Cook of prodding progressive ideas and Raskin of climate risk advocacy, arguing the Fed is becoming a general arm of government rather than preserving currency. It also cites Neel Kashkari promoting a constitutional education amendment, claiming the Fed’s expanding political role undermines legislative authority and blurs its primary mandate.
