Proposed Plan and Potential Impact
- The Plan: A group of Trump allies are considering ways to diminish the independence of the central bank.
- Implications: The plan could lead to a Fed chair consulting with Trump on interest rate decisions, unprecedented White House authority over Fed regulations, and implications on emergency lending programs.
