Price Stability Act: Federal Reserve's Mandate Shift

This act changes the Federal Reserve's objectives by removing the pursuit of maximum employment. This means the Federal Reserve will focus solely on maintaining stable prices, which could impact monetary policy and indirectly affect the job market and purchasing power in citizens' daily lives.
Key points
The Federal Reserve will have only one goal: price stability, without considering maximum employment.
This change may influence decisions on interest rates and credit availability, potentially impacting citizens' savings and investments.
