The following press release was published by the United States Committee on Finance Ranking Member’s News on May 15, 2001. It is reproduced in full below.

Sen. Chuck Grassley, chairman of the Committee on Finance, today made the followingcomment on the Federal Reserve’s latest interest rate cut.

“I’m glad to see aggressive action from the Fed to keep our economy afloat. As I’ve saidbefore, it’s a lot easier to prevent a drowning than it is to rescue the drowned. And lowerinterest rates can do more in the way of an immediate economic stimulus than anything Congresscan do. The Fed’s sensitivity to our economic slowdown is right on."
