For the last few years Democrats in Washington have tried to kill digital assets, but those days are over under President Trump and the newly confirmed SEC Chairman Paul Atkins. It's time for America to lead on digital assets, and we look forward to working with Chairman Atkins on making that happen.

The bipartisan Blockchain Innovation Project commends @SenatorHagerty, @SenLummis, @SenatorTimScott, @RepFrenchHill, and @RepBryanSteil for their leadership in providing regulatory certainty and removing barriers to stablecoin adoption. House and Senate leaders must seize this once-in-a-generation opportunity and prioritize stablecoin legislation that can pass both chambers and be signed into law by @realDonaldTrump.

Congratulations to Patriot Senator Bo Biteman, of the Great State of Wyoming, for working to pass SCHOOL CHOICE, a top priority of my Administration, putting power where it belongs – PARENTS. This would be an incredible Victory for Wyoming students and families. Every Member of the Wyoming Senate should vote for HB 199. I will be watching!

Issuing a CBDC would allow bureaucrats to spy on American citizens and control their financial transactions.
Everyone — regardless of political party — should be wary of how much power a CBDC would give the federal government.

I stand firmly against the creation of a U.S. #CBDC. The financial privacy of American citizens is paramount, and the risks to our constitutional freedoms are too severe to ignore.
"The creation of a U.S. CBDC would threaten the financial health of the country and the constitutional rights of law-abiding Americans." -@club4growth

Thank you @GOPMajorityWhip for protecting Americans from the dangers of CBDCs. Privacy matters.
My bill, the CBDC Anti-Surveillance State Act, garnered significant momentum this week:
- 120 cosponsors
- Broad coalition support
- Reintroduction of @SenTedCruz's Senate companion
Here's what stakeholders are saying about this important legislation:

Yesterday, the Utah House unanimously passed a bill banning central bank digital currencies (CBDCs) from being used as legal tender!

The CBDC Anti-Surveillance State Act now has 75 co-sponsors!
"In short, a central bank digital currency is government-controlled programmable money that, if not designed to emulate cash, could give the federal government the ability to surveil and restrict Americans’ transactions." @GOPMajorityWhip

Unsurprisingly, the SEC is having trouble hiring crypto experts because ... if you become their employee, you can't own any crypto. Maybe that's why Gary Gensler and his staff are so uneducated about and biased against digital assets.

Watching the Senate Banking hearing on Hamas financing.
I must say it is refreshing to see the panel of expert witnesses repeatedly fact check Sen. Warren’s assertions that crypto should be the focus in combatting Hamas funding.

We’re excited to announce that we’ve partnered with @BIPblockchain and its Chairman @DavidMMcintosh to bring the transparency of blockchain to Washington.
David has created a bipartisan initiative, the Blockchain Innovation Project, in collaboration with @JoshMandelOhio, @schultzohio, @RepTimRyan, Ty Strong and others. We aim to bring policy advocacy into the future and leverage blockchain technology and transparency for provability of donation distributions and also to curate policy
The goal of BIP is to bring the power of policy back to the people and give retail a real voice in the Washington in a way that hasn’t existed before
Leading into November we will be preparing for initiatives that will give retail a direct line of communication in Washington and give an opportunity to donate to a 501(c)(4) that has been created to change the narrative of crypto and blockchain technology
We’re excited to be a foundational layer of fiat-to-crypto and crypto-native donations that will empower legislators to gain the support required to ensure that technology is built, adopted, and supported domestically
We believe the future will be powered by blockchain technology and we aim to support all initiatives that ensure that becomes reality
