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.

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.

In Utah, we value fair competition. By ensuring banks use impartial, risk-based criteria when evaluating customers—our commonsense legislation protects lawful industries like firearms, energy producers, and cryptocurrencies. curtis.senate.gov/press-releases…

Today, I spoke in favor of the FIT for the 21st Century Act. This bill establishes a clear regulatory framework for digital assets, fostering innovation and ensuring U.S. leadership in blockchain tech. It's time for Utah's Silicon Slopes to become a global hub for digital assets.

Bitcoin and crypto have come a long way since Laszlo Hanyecz bought pizza on this day in 2010. While the value has skyrocketed, crypto has become a significant part of our economy, especially here in Utah, where Overstock was one of the first companies to accept crypto payments. u.today/bitcoin-celebr…

On the floor today, I urged my colleagues to support a resolution repealing the latest SEC rule targeting crypto currency. Crypto is a legitimate market used by many Utahns. We should be giving investors opportunities to take part in crypto, not putting up artificial barriers.

Today, I cosponsored legislation that prevents crypto from being put at a government created disadvantage. Our current tax code does not work in the current digital asset ecosystem and putting crypto on an even disclosure playing field with cash ensures it remains accessible to millions of Americans. Congress must continue to work to bring legal and regulatory certainty to ensure these technologies and entrepreneurs, especially those in Silicon Slopes, can continue to flourish here in the U.S. #utpol

The SEC approved several first-of-their-kind ETFs centered around Bitcoin. This is a good first step from the fed gov't to foster innovation and consumer choice, not stifle it. Now we need to continue with legislation that puts guardrails up for consumers and predictability for the crypto industry.
