Gary Gensler's testimony before the Banking Committee has been canceled due to some "scheduling issues." Gensler has skirted the law to advance his radical agenda and attack crypto—Americans deserve to hear him explain what has been going on under his watch at the @SECGov.

The U.S. has always been a financial leader, but we're on the brink of being left behind in the digital asset race. President Trump understands digital assets are here to stay; now Congress needs to pass essential legislation to secure our financial future. pic.x.com/9q1g9hq02a

Criminals are contacting, threatening, and coercing elderly Americans into depositing large sums of money into criminals’ crypto wallets using Bitcoin ATMs. We’re telling those companies: it’s time to stop this. pic.x.com/hbc7mzinkr

Regulators shouldn't be forcing innovation into unregulated offshore markets. Just like with crypto, the federal government must adopt a more innovation-friendly posture, or risk losing America's competitive edge. coindesk.com/policy/2024/09…

My BITCOIN Act is currently the only viable solution that positions us to cut our national debt in half by 2045. I joined @BanklessHQ to discuss how my commonsense legislation will get us back on track and secure our position as a world leader in financial innovation. x.com/BanklessHQ/sta…

Always great to join my friend @SenLummis to discuss financial innovation and digital assets! On @BankingGOP, we'll continue fighting for rules and regulations for digital assets that promote innovation, protect consumers, and keep opportunity here in America, not overseas. pic.x.com/rca6qswyz0

U.S. crypto legislation can happen this year, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N,Y,) said Wednesday at the first major event in which crypto insiders have come out for Vice President Kamala Harris as their favored presidential contender.

"We all believe in the future of crypto," Schumer said at an online event hosted by Crypto4Harris. "Congress has a responsibility to provide common sense and sound regulation on crypto, and we need your support to make sure that any proposal is bipartisan."

"Crypto is here to stay, no matter what, so Congress must get it right," Schumer said.

Debbie Stabenow, Senator from Michigan (D)

Quoted from www.coindesk.com on Aug 14th, 2024


Sen. Debbie Stabenow (D-Mich.), who chairs the Senate Agriculture Committee, said her goal is to "provide the structure that both protects consumers but also allows this innovation to really flourish," referring to crypto commodities as something the Commodity Futures Trading Commission – long seen as a potentially friendlier regulator toward crypto than the Securities and Exchange Commission – should oversee.

Innovation in crypto, one of the greatest, most impactful technologies that we see for our nation's future, should happen here in America—not be forced offshore the way the current Administration has been doing. President Trump made that clear last weekend at Bitcoin Nashville. pic.twitter.com/hS3TIoswlG

The Biden Admin has made several moves toward creating a CBDC. This is what's being done in Communist China, & it would allow govt surveillance & control of all of our financial transactions. The Bitcoin community doesn’t want something centrally controlled by the federal govt. pic.twitter.com/8ebUIXZ0gl

Today, the national debt has passed a staggering $35 trillion. A strategic Bitcoin reserve could stop this runaway train and help pay down the national debt for our future generations.
