TARKANIAN STATEMENT ON BERNANKE CONFIRMATION: AUDIT THE FED FIRST

TARKANIAN STATEMENT ON BERNANKE: AUDIT THE FED FIRST

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: January 25, 2010

TARKANIAN STATEMENT

“I join with other leading conservatives in calling for the postponement of the confirmation of Ben Bernanke until a thorough audit of the Federal Reserve can be accomplished and reported to review what Mr. Bernanke has done as Chairman. It is widely believed that the Federal Reserve has issued trillions of dollars in loans to banks and other private institutions far exceeding the annual budget of the United States. So my position is that Mr. Bernanke should not be confirmed pending the completion of that audit.”
