Repugs are the Job Creators, the Job Protectors
At The Height Of The Great Recession, Mike Pence Wanted The Fed To Stop Focusing On Unemployment
The unemployment rate in November, 2010 was 9.8 percent, near its peak level.
However, joblessness was not Pence’s concern at the time.
That month he went to the floor of Congress and called on the Federal Reserve to stop focusing job growth and proposed legislation to enshrine this change into law. In a speech led “End The Dual Mandate At The Fed,” he called on Congress to alter the bank’s role in the economy.
“It is time, once again, to demand that the Federal Reserve focus exclusively on price stability and protecting the dollar,” he said.
Pence made similar statements in a speech to the Detroit Economic Club later that month.
