Sen. Rand Paul Renews Call to Audit the Federal Reserve

‘I rise today ... in opposition to the veil of secrecy that cloaks the money changing that takes place in the temple of the Federal Reserve’

"I rise today in opposition to secrecy, in opposition to the veil of secrecy that cloaks the money changing that takes place in the temple of the Federal Reserve. While the money changes hands, the moneyed class gets richer and the middle class gets shortchanged. It is more than time to put the curtain -- to part the curtain that hides the trillions of dollars that change hands.

There is a revolving door from Wall Street to the Treasury to the Fed and back again. We have former Secretaries of Treasury who go from government to Wall Street, pocketing hundreds of millions of dollars. I’ve called repeatedly for transparency at the Federal Reserve so Americans can see what is being done with their money supply."
