To the best of my knowledge, the Federal Reserve has no official position in favor of or against raising the minimum wage. Claiming otherwise is speculation and likely misinforming people.

They may not take an official position, but their actions do lead to wages not increasing. Here's one example: https://www.axios.com/economists-federal-reserve-wages-708b9...
