The Fed no doubt fears that if the principle of requiring a formal rule is accepted, Congress could tighten the requirement, forcing a more restrictive monetary policy. That is why the new Fed chair, Janet Yellen, forcefully opposed such legislation in recent congressional testimony.
美联储无疑会担心：如果正式规则的需求原则被接受，国会可以加强要求，迫使实施更严格的货币政策。这就是为什么美联储新主席珍妮特·耶伦（Janet Yellen）会在最近的国会声明中极力反对这一立法。
