@RepDustyJohnson

America should be the global leader in the digital assets marketplace - but we can't do that without establishing a clear regulatory framework. Our bill will give the market clarity it needs to thrive. I’m grateful for the work and leadership of my colleagues on this important piece of legislation. dustyjohnson.house.gov/media/press-re…

Bill Name

CLARITY Act

Details

The "Digital Asset Market Clarity Act of 2025," or "CLARITY Act of 2025," establishes a regulatory framework for digital commodities, granting the CFTC exclusive jurisdiction over spot market transactions and related entities like exchanges, brokers, and dealers. It aims to differentiate digital commodities from securities, introduce a "mature blockchain system" concept for regulatory exemptions, and protect individual self-custody rights.

As the global economy adopts more blockchain & digital assets technology, the South Dakota Blockchain Institute is keeping us up to speed by advocating for blockchain here. I spoke with them about bills I’ve been working on, like FIT21 to establish a digital assets framework.

A central bank digital currency allows unprecedented surveillance & control over private citizens’ bank accounts. This is wholly un-American and is used by governments like the CCP. I just voted for the CBDC Anti-Surveillance State Act to protect your financial privacy & liberty.

The digital asset space is muddled with regulatory uncertainty, lack of authority, & a lacking framework for core operating principles. The #crypto industry wants clarity. This collaborative bill with @CongressmanGT & @RepFrenchHill gives both the CFTC & SEC a seat at the table.

There’s a lot of confusion surrounding digital assets. In a rare joint hearing with the digital assets subcommittees in both House Ag & House Financial Services Committees, leaders on digital assets and commodities cleared up some of our confusion so the U.S. can remain the leadelogical innovation.
