On the very first day of the 113th Congress, Georgia Congressman Paul Broun introduced legislation for a complete audit of the Federal Reserve System. This legislation will bring transparency to the central bank's covert operations. After passing the House of Representatives in 2012 with bipartisan support, the original Audit the Fed bill was dead-on-arrival in the Senate thanks to Harry Reid and the rest of the establishment. They chose to stand with secret bailouts for the world’s most profitable companies, foreign banks, and even foreign governments instead of the people.

The Federal Reserve has nothing to do with free enterprise, entrepreneurship, or fiscal prudence. Central banking is based on bureaucratic top-down control where a few privileged bankers control the market for money. And it is through the continuous printing of dollars, Washington is able to spend recklessly while racking up a massive debt and making everyday life more expensive for working Americans.

After the 2008 bailout, the Federal Reserve finally became a political issue. Crony bankers and politically-favored firms had their balance sheets fixed while ordinary Americans faced higher food and energy prices.

It’s time for Congress to take back its Constitutional authority and shine a light on the Fed. Let's make 2013 the year that Ben Bernanke and his friends can no longer hide! Tell your representative in the House to support Congressman Broun’s Audit the Fed bill!

Support Rep. Broun's Audit the Fed bill!
Dear [Decision Maker],
Georgia Congressman Paul Broun has reintroduced the "Audit the Federal Reserve" bill that passed the House of Representatives in 2012. As your constituent, I urge you to support this legislation.

Banks and politically-favored firms made out like bandits during the 2008 bailout. The Federal Reserve printed over a trillion dollars to help Wall Street while the money in the wallets of average Americans lost value. Groceries are now more expensive. It costs more to buy a full tank of gasoline. Even the price of back-to-school clothes is rising.

It's time for the American people to know just what Ben Bernanke is doing with the economy. Support Paul Broun's Audit the Fed legislation and stand with the people, not the banking elite.
Sincerely,
[Your Name]
[Your Address]
[City, State ZIP]
