American Reserve Modernization Act of 2026

This legislation establishes a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve and a separate Digital Asset Stockpile within the Department of the Treasury to manage the federal government's digital holdings.

Bill
GENIUS Act
Details
The GENIUS Act of 2025 proposes a regulatory framework for payment stablecoins. It defines permitted issuers (insured depository institutions, their subsidiaries, and approved nonbank entities) and mandates 1:1 reserve backing with specific high-quality assets. The bill outlines federal and state regulatory oversight options, sets requirements for customer asset segregation, and grants stablecoin holders priority in insolvency proceedings. It also clarifies that regulated payment stablecoins are not considered securities or commodities under various acts. The bill designates issuers as financial institutions under the Bank Secrecy Act, requiring compliance with AML, KYC, and sanctions regulations to prevent illicit finance and safeguard national security. It also reinforces U.S. leadership in digital finance by supporting innovation and ensuring the dollar remains competitive in a rapidly evolving global financial landscape.

The Fed needs to keep its hands out of our wallets. I'm proud to join @GOPMajorityWhip Tom Emmer's CBDC Anti-Surveillance State Act to halt the efforts of unelected bureaucrats in Washington, D.C. to issue a central bank digital currency.
