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.

Nobody should take economic advice from anti-crypto, out-of-touch politicians like Senator Warren. The inflation we’re experiencing isn’t because of technology or markets; it’s the direct result of failed economic and foreign policy decisions by President Biden and VP Harris. Lt American families—it’s bad leadership, not innovation. It’s time to stop pointing fingers and start fixing the mess they’ve made.

Elizabeth Warren tries to defend Kamala's Soviet-style price control scheme — but can't handle any criticism. "This is the way you never lose an argument because nobody can ever say anything back to you, Senator." @JoeSquawk

President Trump is 100% correct on this. For America to dominate the next step of the global economy, we must be 100% pro-crypto!

The President’s veto weakens protections for consumers in digital asset markets and upends decades of custody rules. By rejecting the bipartisan consensus of Congress, the Administration is doubling down on its failed approach. Senate action on #FIT21 is more urgent than ever.
