GOP Leaders Urge Fed Not to Act


Top Republican lawmakers, "in a rare effort to directly influence Federal Reserve policy, expressed reservations about the central bank taking additional steps to spur the recovery, saying further action could harm the economy," the Wall Street Journal reports.

House Speaker John Boehner (R-OH), Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) and other GOP leaders sent a letter urging Fed officials to "resist further extraordinary intervention in the U.S. economy."
