liveonearthThe proposed bill simply requires that our Federal Reserve be transparent and accountable. Congress is coming around, seeing the value in knowing the doings of our central bank.

Seems like people want our congress to take a little more interest in where our money goes and what is done with it.
Here's the bill:
