A banker by trade, he was the chief sponsor of the 1927 McFadden Act, which rechartered the Federal Reserve System in perpetuity, liberalized branch banking for national banks and increased competition between member and non-member banks.
He is known for his antisemitic conspiracy theories, which eventually saw him lose his seat in the House of Representatives.
