At today’s @USHouseFSC hearing, I raised concerns about the CLARITY Act. Crypto firms must meet SEC-level standards, not bypass oversight. With a history of misconduct and collapse, we must prioritize fairness, accountability, and investor protection.

The STABLE Act fails to establish clear refund/insurance rules, exposing consumers to losses w/o real avenues of redress. It also fails to provide recourse for mismanagement & fraud. If stablecoin issuers become insolvent or misuse reserves, what protections do you get? Not many.
