Yesterday, the House of Representatives passed my amendment to H.R. 5403, the CBDC Anti-Surveillance State Act, to close the Federal Reserve’s Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC) pilot program loophole.

@RepAlexMooney

The Federal Reserve has been contracting with the private sector to build central bank digital currencies (CBDCs) for the United States, far beyond what could be considered traditional research. Congress has not given the federal government any direction when it comes to CBDCs.

Details: This bill establishes a comprehensive regulatory framework for digital assets, assigning primary jurisdiction over "digital commodities" to the CFTC and "restricted digital assets" to the SEC. It defines key terms like "digital asset," "digital commodity," and "permitted payment stablecoin," and creates a mechanism for digital assets to transition from securities to commodities upon achieving sufficient decentralization. The legislation also outlines registration requirements for various digital asset intermediaries and mandates studies on decentralized finance and non-fungible digital assets.

Congress has never given the Executive Branch or Federal Reserve any authority to create or study CBDCs. If this White House wants to research a government surveillance tool that the overwhelming majority of Americans oppose, that direction should come from Congress.

This is why I have introduced legislation, H.R. 3712, the Digital Dollar Pilot Prevention Act, to expressly prohibit the Fed from creating a CBDC in the shadows without explicit authorization from Congress.

@profstonge

Congress won't authorize a CBDC, so the Fed's building one anyway. The Fed was designed to be a banker cartel that's independent of the people: It prints its own budget, it effectively appoints its own leaders, it even hands dividends to the banks who control it. As Ron Paul olCIA, yet it effectively runs our entire lives. While our elected representatives sit on the sidelines as spectators. It is an insult to democracy.

Pleased to report the @FinancialCmte passed the bipartisan Clarity for Payment Stablecoins Act (H.R. 4766) to provide clear rules of the road for stablecoin issuers, fostering innovation in the U.S., and protecting consumers.

#BREAKING: Chairman @PatrickMcHenry's Clarity for Payment Stablecoins Act passes the Financial Services Committee with BIPARTISAN support. After fifteen months of bipartisan collaboration, this landmark legislation is one step closer to becoming law.

Yesterday, I spoke on the House Floor about my legislation, H.R. 3712, the Digital Dollar Pilot Prevention Act. It closes the Federal Reserve’s Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC) pilot program loophole. Make no mistake: CBDCs are not about innovation—they are about control.

West Virginia's @RepAlexMooney introduces bill "to stop the development of a CBDC in its tracks.” Because government has no business building a surveillance state hidden inside your money. 15 co-signers so far, hopefully many more to come!

JUST IN: @HouseGOP’s CBDC Bans Must Close All Loopholes: @RepAlexMooney will be introducing a bill that would ban the pilot program loophole to test practicability of a CBDC, including partnering or coordinating with a private sector entity! #ampFW ampfw.org/3NjJeuT
