Very Pro-Crypto

Quoted from standwithcrypto.org on 2026-03-05

Eric Sorensen completed the Stand With Crypto Questionnaire and supports establishing clear legislative pathways for digital asset businesses, self-custody rights, and ending de-banking for lawful crypto entities. He advocates for a legislative framework to define digital assets as securities or commodities and supports exploring blockchain technology for government efficiency, while also believing non-custodial software developers should not be regulated as financial intermediaries. Sorensen has supported bills like the Clarity Act and FIT21, emphasizing the need for clear, consistent regulations, strong market structure, and consumer protections, though he does not support widely accessible 1:1 backed stablecoins.

Bill Name
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.

It’s about time we bring some “clarity” to the cryptocurrency market that has often operated on the edges of our financial system. Today, I helped pass the CLARITY Act, which will help bring some regulations and structures to the growing digital currency sector.
