The Committee

Twelve votes decide each statement: the seven governors, the president of the New York Fed, and four other Reserve Bank presidents who rotate in for a year at a time. Dissents are rare and they are the record — a member has to be willing to be named in the statement as disagreeing with the chair. Every vote since January 2024 is below; ↑ dissented for tighter policy, ↓ for easier, · voted with the majority.
