Ron Paul has introduced legislation requiring an audit of the Federal Reserve so we can at least get an accurate picture of what is happening with our money. According to Dr. Paul, "If this audit reveals what I suspect, and Congress has finally had enough, they can also pass my legislation to abolish the Federal Reserve and put control of the economy’s lifeblood, the currency, back where it Constitutionally belongs. If Congress refuses to do these two things, the very least they could do is repeal legal tender laws and allow people to choose a different currency in which to operate. If the Fed refuses to open its books to an audit, and Congress refuses to demand this, the people should not be subject to the whims of this secretive and incompetent organization." As his next step, Dr. Paul introduced the bill on February 26, the "Federal Reserve Transparency Act of 2009," H.R. 1207. The pupose of this act is "To amend title 31, United States Code, to reform the manner in which the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System is audited by the Comptroller General of the United States and the manner in which such audits are reported, and for other purposes." Although this description of H.R. 1207 is quite vague, Ron Paul made this bill's intent and expected impact very clear. The bottom line is that Ron Paul has designed H.R. 1207 to provide, if passed, the first true audit of the Federal Reserve. This audit would be provided to the congressional leadership and to any other member of Congress who asked for a copy. This audit would be a powerful tool for exposing exactly how the Fed controls our economy and our freedom through its creation of money out of thin air. Wielded properly by freedom-minded citizens and legislators, this audit could play a decisive role in restoring sound money and phasing out the Federal Reserve. Scroll down to take action by sending an email to your representative and senators in Congress telling them to support passage of H.R. 1207 in the House and S. 604 (the Senate version) in the Senate. Be sure your representatives are co-sponsors - check here. Be sure to personalize the pre-written letter to ensure the maximum impact. You are free to edit the pre-written sample letter.

Please support passage of H.R. 1207 in the House and S. 604 in the Senate to Audit the Federal Reserve.
Due to the present-day trillion dollar bailouts, stimulus bills, and resulting federal deficits, we are entering an era when the Federal Reserve's inflation tax will be much more of a burden on most Americans than Congress' income tax.
The creation of money out of thin air by the Federal Reserve to paper over the multi-trillion dollar federal deficits and to prop up its fiat paper money system threatens to destroy the dollar and wipe out the value of our earnings from our jobs, our retirement income, our investments, and our insurance.
Congress created the inflation engine known as the Federal Reserve in 1913. Now Congress must ensure a thorough audit of its creature, the Federal Reserve, by passing H.R. 1207 and S. 604.
We the People deserve to know the truth about the Federal Reserve so that freedom-minded citizens and legislators can gain sufficient support in Congress to restore sound money and phase out the Federal Reserve.
