According to a report from CoinWorld, U.S. House Representative Anna Paulina Luna has submitted criminal charges to the Department of Justice, claiming that Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell committed perjury twice. In her letter, Luna wrote: 'On June 25, 2025, Powell testified under oath before the U.S. Senate Committee on Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs regarding the renovation of the Federal Reserve's Eccles Building. In his statement, he made several significant false statements.' Luna also stated, 'Additionally, in a letter to the Director of the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Russell Vought, Powell indicated that the change in project costs from $1.9 billion to $2.5 billion was trivial. However, documents reviewed by congressional investigators show that the scope and cost overruns of this project are fundamentally and substantially not minor issues.' Perjury carries a maximum penalty of 5 years in prison, in addition to fines.
