  <plain-language-summary>As suggested by its title, this bill seeks to abolish the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System along with the Federal reserve banks within the period of a year. Rep. Paul has also proposed a somewhat milder alternative to this bill, &lt;a
href=&quot;http://www.opencongress.org/bill/111-h1207/show&quot;&gt;H.R. 1207&lt;/a&gt;, which calls for more transparency of the Fed and requires the GAO to conduct a full audit of their activities.</plain-language-summary>
