![Balancing Accountability and Independence
The core of our proposal balances increased presidential oversight for the Board of Governors, which confers greater democratic legitimacy, against a strengthened system of Reserve Banks.[8] We recommend shortening board member terms and clarifying that members serve at the will of the U.S. president, as well as imposing bans on the revolving door between the executive branch and the Fed. Heightened presidential control over the board should be balanced by increasing the influence of the Reserve Banks, whose boards of directors should be chosen by state governors in each district, instead of the undemocratic special interests that currently dominate.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:rbffgd2zo6r7rmnklo2nlyy5/bafkreihbjfljqb7467ijzhnj7xatq3b6mayczm3qx63kibdygv6o3salm4@jpeg)
