Mandate Specific Inflation Targets

Federal Reserve / Board of Governors

Require the Federal Reserve to specify exact inflation target ranges and growth paths, eliminating flexible average inflation targeting.

"Have elected officials compel the Fed to specify its target range for inflation and inform the public of a concrete intended growth path. There should be no more 'flexible average inflation targeting,' which amounts to ex post justification for bad policy." – Project 2025
