The Federal Reserve at Risk: Why Independence Matters

Join the American Constitution Society (ACS) and former Governor of the Federal Reserve Board, Professor Sarah Bloom Raskin, for a conversation about the importance of the Federal Reserve's independence. The conversation will focus on recent actions by the Executive Branch that threaten the Fed's autonomy, such as the attempted removal of Federal Reserve Board Governor Lisa Cook. Professor Raskin will also explore the legal and economic consequences of undermining the Fed's independence, from destabilizing markets to weakening the separation of powers.
