Crypto industry experts and community members weigh in on each politician and their stances to determine where they stand on crypto.
Hester Peirce stood up for American innovators long before it was popular, and the digital asset industry owes her a debt it can never fully repay. Thank you, Hester, for years of dissenting against regulation by enforcement and leading the SEC’s Crypto Task Force to bring clear elong. Wishing you all the best in your next chapter.
Democrats demanded that front-end DeFi platforms comply with U.S. sanctions law like every other financial platform. We wrote it into the Clarity Act.
Senate Democrats voted against protecting our national security from sanctioned bad actors using DeFi.
Democrats wanted federal consumer protections for crypto ATMs to protect seniors from scammers. The Clarity Act delivers those comprehensive protections.
Democrats voted no on protecting seniors from ATM fraud.
A bitcoin tax cut that raises money for the Treasury.
New research from @sekreps and Cornell's Tech Policy Institute scores the de minimis exemption in Sen. Lummis's S. 2207, which would exempt bitcoin purchases under $300 from capital gains tax.
Critics warned the exemption would cost the Treasury billions. The brief finds it would instead raise an estimated $859 million over 10 years.
The reason is simple: Only 32 to 56 percent of bitcoin owners report their gains today, so the government collects very little from small purchases now. Meanwhile, the tax and recordkeeping burden stops people from spending bitcoin at all. Remove it, and more transactions happen, generating taxable activity elsewhere in the economy.
The result holds across nearly every scenario tested, and it still holds at a narrower $200 threshold.
Full brief:
Crypto is great for tax evasion. There is no good reason for excluding crypto platforms from filing IRS Form 1099 like other securities dealers. And an exclusion costs $4 billion of estimated tax cheating.
Last week, GOP, always obedient to Trump, said cheat on by rejecting my amendment. Easier for them to talk against fraud than actually take meaningful steps to stop it.

Small businesses shouldn’t have to figure out new technology on their own.
Digital assets like cryptocurrency are becoming more common, but that doesn’t mean every Main Street business has the time or resources to understand the risks, benefits, taxes, and security questions hat’s why I introduced the COIN Act: to give small business owners clear, reliable information so they can make informed decisions about whether digital assets make sense for their business.
The next administration can undo these actions unless Congress acts.
I have introduced the Permanent CBDC Ban Act. Congress must ensure Americans will never be exposed to unconstitutional financial surveillance.

Democrats wanted digital asset platforms to be formally classified as financial institutions under the Bank Secrecy Act. The Clarity Act does it.
Democrats voted no.
Last week, Subcommittee Chairman @RepBrianJack held a hearing on how digital assets like crypto can help small businesses get paid faster and strengthen cash flow on Main Street.

Democrats asked for major crypto holders to disclose their stakes and report sales to the SEC and the public. It’s in the Clarity Act.
Democrats voted against the same disclosure rules they wrote.
The Ways and Means Committee advanced H.R. 10357, the Digital Asset Tax Certainty Act, by a bipartisan 38–5 vote. I’m proud to cosponsor this legislation and help shape an approach that gives consumers, investors, and innovators clearer rules for a rapidly changing digital ortant step forward, but the work continues. We need a tax code that keeps pace with new technology while providing certainty, accountability, and strong safeguards. On to the next step.
CBDC = communist money for the digital age. Programmable money puts the government between you and your money. You will only have access with their permission. This is an existential threat to western civilization.
Democrats wanted crypto issuers held to the same fraud liability standard as every other securities filer. The Clarity Act applies Securities Act Section 17(a) liability to digital asset disclosures.
Democrats still voted no.
Democrats demanded audited financial statements for any crypto project raising more than $25 million from the public. It’s in the bill.
Democrats voted against the transparency they asked for.
Not only is crypto a valuable tool for tax evasion, money laundering, and other criminal activity, the data centers it requires can impact our air, water, and electricity bills. Crypto-miners have actually cost Texans millions when they have to be paid to conserve energy during disasters and heat waves.
We should at least be able to learn the extent of their energy use and environmental damage. But in rejecting my amendment to their crypto tax breaks bill, GOP made clear their view that what you don’t know, can’t hurt you.

Democrats wanted exchanges to be forced to delist any digital asset whose issuer breaks disclosure rules. The Clarity Act requires it.
Senate Democrats still voted no.

@RepJasonSmith discusses the bipartisan passage of new tax legislation for digital assets, which cleared the committee with a 38–5 vote. @jsolomonReports@AmandaHead
The abusive power of federal lawfare can change how you view government power.
@OwenShroyer1776 experienced it firsthand.
Today on Fresh Freedom, we discuss what that experience means in an era of Flock cameras, mass data collection, CBDCs, and increasingly powerful surveillance technology. How much power should the government have over your data, privacy, and money?
Watch Episode 78 now.
Democrats insisted the SEC keep full authority to police fraud and market manipulation in digital assets. We preserved it word for word.
Senate Democrats killed the bill that protects investors from fraud.
Democrats wanted the SEC and CFTC to be formally empowered with rulemaking authority to fight insider trading in digital assets. The Clarity Act delivers it. Democrats voted no anyway.
Today’s proposed rule by @fdicgov will breathe new life into the dual banking system. Thank you Chairman Hill for your commitment to state banking, including digital assets and responsible innovation.
Proud of my longtime staffer, Chris Land, for being named one of The Hill's 25 Most Notable Hill Staffers of 2026.
He has led our digital assets efforts and served as the lead policy staffer on the GENIUS Act and Clarity Act negotiations. Congrats, Chris!

The American Reserve Modernization Act (ARMA) just cleared the House Financial Services Committee.
We built support with members of Congress, subject matter experts, Commerce, and Treasury. Significant effort was made by committee staff on this important legislation, and for that collaborative work, we are grateful.
Thank you to Chairman @RepFrenchHill, Chairman @RepBryanSteil, and the @FinancialCmte for advancing this bipartisan legislation which protects the American principles of financial sovereignty through self-custody, while establishing a clear Congressional framework for responsibly securing digital asset holdings held across our federal government.
