What Members of the U.S. Senate from the 116th Session of Congress Support Crypto?

Elizabeth Warren

@ewarren

Donald Trump is making big bucks off crypto while American families have next to zero protection. We need real rules and regulations here. That's what I'm fighting for.

Senator Chris Van Hollen

@ChrisVanHollen

The famously leftist, radical WSJ Editorial Board said the CLARITY Act: - is "riddled with policy land mines" - "needs changes to reduce risks to the financial system" - has loopholes "criminals could exploit... to route illicit payments." But the crypto industry wants the LARITY Act in the next 48 hours. This bill isn't ready for prime time.

@SenJohnBarrasso

America is safer and stronger when we innovate. This year, Congress passed the first major digital asset bill in American history. It's called The GENIUS Act. It's time for the Senate to build on that by passing The CLARITY Act.

I'm leading my colleagues in demanding the Trump Administration crack down on a Russian state-backed crypto network that Putin uses to evade U.S. sanctions and fund his unprovoked war against Ukraine. Read more here: bennet.senate.gov/2026/07/30/ben…

Crypto is the currency of choice for crooks. Lori Flowers shares her story as a victim of crypto-enabled transnational organized crime—in order for them to succeed, her scammers needed crypto. We cannot keep giving the bad guys an easy button.

The crypto industry is hoping you won't notice as they quietly push the CLARITY Act through Congress. Masquerading as "reform," this bill does nothing to stop Trump's crypto corruption or the use of crypto by criminal networks & other bad actors. We must expose their scheme.

Crypto & digital assets are the future, & it’s critical that our tax code keeps up with the times. My digital asset tax framework will establish guardrails to increase compliance, & protect American entrepreneurs while fostering jobs & innovation.

“When you’re a professional pirate You'll be honest brave and free The soul of decency You'll be loyal and fair and on the square And most importantly When you're a professional pirate You're always in the best of company!” -Muppet Treasure Island Foreign criminals and America’s enemies have digital assets ripe for the taking. Under the Cyber Letters of Marque and Reprisal Act I’ve introduced with @timburchett, President Trump could authorize hackers as 21st century privateers to seize their money and sabotage their systems, splitting the profits with the American people. Who wants to raise the black flag?

I respect both candidates in this race. But I’m supporting Peggy Flanagan, and one reason is simple: crypto. Crypto interests are spending millions to influence this primary. Until this industry is meaningfully regulated, we need a Senator whose instincts and record are firmly s. That’s Peggy Flanagan. I’m proud to support her, and I hope you’ll join me.

@ChrisMurphyCT

The CLARITY Act is the bill supported by the crypto industry to increase their reach into our banking system and broader economy. There are many problems with the bill, but most egregious is that is essentially legalizes Donald Trump's crypto corruption scheme. Let me explain.

I agree with @LeaderJohnThune: The Senate should vote on crypto market structure legislation in July. @BankingGOP advanced a bipartisan bill that would deliver clear rules of the road, protect consumers, and keep innovation in America. It’s time to deliver for the American people.

More evidence that our adversaries exploit crypto to move billions. The Clarity Act, as it's currently written, would make this problem worse. Congress should be strengthening illicit finance standards, not creating new loopholes.

If the United States doesn’t lead with our values and a light-touch regulatory framework, the crypto industry will move offshore. Democrats may not like having a businessman as President, but we shouldn’t abandon pro-growth, pro-business policies simply because they might benefit y.

For far too long, America’s digital asset market was marked by regulatory uncertainty and confusion - driving innovation overseas, leaving Americans exposed, and making it harder for law enforcement to do their job. The Clarity Act changes that by protecting consumers, keeping innovation in the U.S., and safeguarding our national security.

Crypto billionaires helped install an agency head who would be willing to undo past law enforcement actions against their companies. This is a scandal. The crypto legislation Congress is considering would give even more power to this captured agency.

It’s already too easy for our adversaries to exploit crypto to move billions. We should be strengthening standards, not creating new gaps our adversaries can exploit. The Clarity Act should not pass as written.

Cryptocurrency scams and fraud accounted for roughly half of all cybercrime losses in the United States last year, threatening the financial security of many hardworking families. Safeguarding consumers requires a coordinated approach.
