Federal Reserve Chair Janet Yellen will speak before the Joint Economic Committee of Congress on Dec. 3, making the appearance at a pivotal time for monetary policy and the U.S. economy.

The Fed chair addresses the JEC on the economic outlook annually and will speak during the morning, said committee spokeswoman Kristine Michalson. Her comments will come just 12 days before the two-day policy-setting Federal Open Market Committee starts in Washington.
