Since the Federal Reserve is a private banking business, does anyone see any conflict with transparency of a private business, with private property rights?

No. Because the Congress has delegated to it unconstitutional powers. Like if they passed a bill that said Bank of America can waterboard people. And then they did. And the cops were not allowed to investigate. And they used your tax money to do it. And they did it to your family and friends.

If we had 222 Thursday and picked up 3 on Friday, shouldn't we have 225? Did someone un-cosponsor themselves?

Thomas listed 221 on Thursday, which is the list I'm going by:

It might be that those who were listing 222 were including Ron Paul, but I can't be sure.

malkusm,

I was just coming to this thread to post about Markey becoming a sponsor. Our group has been working hard on getting her to support this bill. Just last week there were two articles in our only daily paper in Fort Collins about HR 1207.

Great work! I appreciate the resources for the OP - hard to believe how far we've come. If I remember right, no Reps from CO had signed on when I first added the petition & video, and Markey makes 5 out of the 7

If you do something similar for the Senate version of the bill let me know, I'll add it to my other thread.
