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.

The system is rigged. And, the American people know it. After scamming the American people out of healthcare, food, and educational assistance two weeks ago to fund tax breaks and boondoggles for billionaires—Trump and the GOP are now trying to rig the system to deregulate cashing in on while in office.) We’re here to fight for the working people of this country!

While Trump and the GOP are desperately trying to shut down the release of the Epstein Files—including voting against its release on the House Floor—they’re melting down and wasting taxpayer time fighting over the bills they had all week to prepare for. Here’s what’s happening. d his friends into the principal’s office to whip votes on the crypto bill. We’ll see what happens tomorrow!

Perhaps this is why Musk and the Admin are data mining federal data systems—looks like they’re looking to make money off of privatizing and cryptotizing federal housing programs. Someone is going to make a LOT of money from this (and destabilize the housing and mortgage markets in the process). We will fight back. ⬇️ https://t.co/mjyDqSoeGj
