What Members of the U.S. Senate from the 118th Session of Congress Support Crypto?

Senator Bill Hagerty

@SenatorHagerty

Patrick has been a tremendous asset in advancing @POTUS’s agenda. From his service at @DeptofWar strengthening America’s defense industrial base to his efforts at the White House championing digital assets, Patrick has proven himself to be a talented convener and a man of action. I hope Patrick remains engaged in these critical issues and continues to provide valuable thought leadership from his next role.

Democrats wanted a full regulatory regime for digital commodity pool operators and trading advisors. The Clarity Act builds it. Democrats voted "no" on protecting investors pooled in crypto funds with real oversight.

No American should lose access to a bank account because of their politics or their industry, and that includes the digital asset businesses wrongfully targeted under Operation Chokepoint 2.0. Thank you @SecScottBessent and @USComptroller for working to ensure Americans have fair access to banking.

Democrats wanted a dedicated CFTC office to advocate for retail crypto investors. The Clarity Act does that with the creation of the Office of the Retail Commodity Advocate. Democrats voted no on protecting retail investors with a dedicated CFTC advocate.

Thank you, @Deseret News, for a great conversation as I near the end of my Senate service. I truly enjoyed discussing my work leading @SenWestCaucus, advancing digital asset policy, saving taxpayers money, and building bipartisan support for nuclear energy. It’s been a privilege to represent Wyoming and take on important issues! deseret.com/politics/2026/…

@ChairmanSelig is establishing clear rules to cement U.S. leadership in digital assets. This is how America leads the future of crypto technology: regulatory certainty that promotes innovation and protects consumers.

Democrats asked for $150 million in new funding for FinCEN to fight financial crime in digital assets, and even though we included it in the Clarity Act, that didn’t stop Democrats from voting against it. They had the opportunity to protect Americans from financial crimes and chose not to.

Democrats demanded disclosures for customers to protect their crypto in a broker bankruptcy, giving them the protection FTX customers never had. Democrats voted against those efforts to protect consumers from another FTX-style bankruptcy loss when they all voted against the Clarity Act.

Wyoming chartered the nation’s first digital asset banks and built a legal framework that has set the standard for digital asset regulation in the United States. I’m very pleased the Wyoming Division of Banking has partnered with the New York Department of Financial Services for streamlined chartering and joint supervision of entities engaged in digital asset activities. dfs.ny.gov/reports_and_pu…

Senator Cortez Masto

@SenCortezMasto

There are strong bicameral discussions on this issue and Chairman Smith and @RepHorsford have advanced a thoughtful proposal. I am especially pleased that it includes our legislation to fix the gaming losses tax that has harmed Nevada. Certainty for taxpayers with digital assets is an important issue, and I look forward to working with my colleagues in the Finance Committee on bipartisan solutions.

Rep. Jason Smith

@RepJasonSmith

I commend Senator @SteveDaines for introducing the Aligning Digital Assets with Principles of Taxation Act. This bill has much in common with the Digital Asset Tax Certainty Act, which passed out of the Ways and Means Committee on a strong bipartisan vote. There is also clear momentum building to deliver tax certainty to digital asset owners and ensure America remains the crypto capital of the world.

Democrats demanded crypto platforms give customers clear, plain-language education on digital asset risks and fraud before they invest. The Clarity Act requires it. Democrats voted no.

James Lankford, Senator from Oklahoma (R)

Quoted from congress.gov

"This bill would also prohibit digital assets. Well, I understand that for investment in cryptocurrency and Bitcoin and everything else, but there is also a digital asset called stablecoins, and this body actually passed that. Stablecoins aren't an investment piece;" [S5224]

Democrats negotiated changes to the Keep Your Coins Act, protecting Americans’ right to hold their own digital assets. Their edits are in the Clarity Act, but they still voted against protecting Americans’ right to hold their own digital assets.

Chris Van Hollen, Senator from Maryland (D)

Quoted from congress.gov

"One of the reasons some of us on the Democratic side were concerned about some of the cryptocurrency bills is because the method that Hamas uses to evade sanctions is cryptocurrency, and the bill that was brought to this floor did not close that loophole used by Hamas." [S5154]

The Trump Admin’s glaring lack of oversight of cryptocurrency issuers has undermined our own national security interests. That is why I am calling on the Dept of Treasury & Justice to immediately investigate Tether & hold it accountable for these potential sanctions violations. hsgac.senate.gov/wp-content/upl…

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.

Bitcoin Policy Institute

@btcpolicyorg

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:
