Today in the @FinancialCmte, I spoke in strong support of H.R. 2702—the FIRM Act. It ends the use of “reputational risk” by regulators to de-bank lawful industries like crypto, energy, and firearms. Financial regulation must be fair and free from ideological political bias. @RepAndyBarr's FIRM Act does just that.

Tonight, the Senate moved forward on the GENIUS Act. This groundbreaking, bipartisan legislation will bring America’s payment system into the 21st century. The GENIUS Act skyrockets the United States with a digital payment framework with the fastest rails possible. It will ensure U.S. dollar dominance. Customers will be protected, the demand for U.S. treasuries will balloon to the tune of more than $1 trillion, and innovation in the digital asset space will thrive in the United States going forward.

For stablecoins and other digital assets to thrive globally, the world needs American leadership. The Senate missed an opportunity to provide that leadership today by failing to advance the GENIUS Act. This bill represents a once-in-a-generation opportunity to expand dollar dominance and U.S. influence in financial innovation. Without it, stablecoins will be subject to a patchwork of state regulations instead of a streamlined federal framework that is more conducive to growth and competitiveness.

Voting “no” today means you are not willing to even debate, nor amend, the GENIUS Act.

It means a sudden change of heart from a “yes” in committee to a swift “no” in the last week is purely about politics, not policy. A “no” vote today is a vote against crypto and against innovation.

Trump isn’t just pushing crypto—he’s using the presidency to cash in on it. His friends and family are running shady firms like World Liberty Financial while he guts the rules meant to protect hard-working Americans from fraud and abuse. This is pure corruption. @USHouseFSC

Despite Maxine Waters’ theatrics this morning, our nonpartisan work continues. This is the most pro-innovation, pro-crypto Congress in history, and the @FinancialCmte is going to deliver a framework for digital asset regulation – regardless of political theater.

Not only does President Trump pose a serious conflict of interest with his own crypto ventures, but he’s also trying to write the rules to benefit himself and his entire family. It’s corruption, plain and simple.

America has the opportunity to lead on digital assets and we can do so in a bipartisan way. When that opportunity presented itself today with @financialcmte & @HouseAgGOP coming together, let the record reflect that Ranking Member Maxine Waters walked away. We cannot allow America to fall behind and cede the regulatory framework for digital assets to China. I am glad to see the conversation move forward as a roundtable discussion.

Crypto is not right or left. It is the future – and it's for everyone. Congress must work together to deliver on @POTUS' promise to make America the crypto capital of the world.

Outdated regulatory frameworks for digital assets have stifled clarity, pushed jobs offshore, and exposed consumers to risk from fraud. The choices we make today will determine whether the U.S. remains a global leader in Web3 or falls behind.

It is my hope that Democrats, including the Ranking Member, join the public hearing on digital asset market structure tomorrow. Last year, 71 Democrats voted for market structure legislation in the House. This year, we are working to finish the task and have it signed into law. I in this task. Any decision by the Ranking Member not to join would be misguided.

The world is rapidly establishing digital asset regulatory frameworks. Europe’s MiCA and Singapore’s PSA are clear warning signs that the U.S. risks falling behind in the race to innovate for the 21st Century. Senate Republicans stand ready to pass @SenatorHagerty's GENIUS Act, which establishes meaningful stablecoin regulation to ensure the United States remains on the cutting edge of financial innovation.

Trump says $50 million for his “big, beautiful” birthday parade is just “peanuts.” To veterans he's fired, it could pay to hire them back. Maybe it's “peanuts” if you’re making millions on crypto schemes, but it's real money taken from veterans’ pockets. nbcnews.com/politics/trump…

The Trump family stablecoin surged to 7th largest in the world because of a shady crypto deal with the United Arab Emirates—a foreign government that will give them a crazy amount of money. The Senate shouldn’t pass a crypto bill this week to facilitate this kind of corruption.

The scope&scale of Trump’s brazen, craven crypto corruption is staggering. He has made it clear he is going to use the Presidency to make as much money as he can in office—conflicts of interest&national security threats be damned. That’s why an investigation is beyond necessary.

We must advance legislation that enshrines American leadership in the digital asset space and protects the US dollar for centuries to come. That time is now. We have a choice here. Move forward and make any remaining changes needed in a bipartisan way, or show that digital ation remains a solely Republican issue.

🚨NEW: Senator @RubenGallego and nine other senators just issued a joint statement regarding the updated text of the GENIUS Act that was released last week, saying they cannot support the bill in its current form. The group notes several concerns, including insufficient provisions on anti-money laundering, national security, and financial system safety. Notably, four Dems on the list supported the bill in its original form during the @BankingGOP markup in March: Gallego, Warner, Kim and Blunt Rochester. Democrat Angela Alsobrooks, a co-sponsor of the bill, did not sign the letter. “This is all about the political dynamics of President Trump,” one Republican Senate aide tells me. The letter comes following major media scrutiny of Trump’s various crypto ventures, including a New York Times story that stated Trump's family members could profit heavily from $2 billion worth of @worldlibertyfi USD1 stablecoins being used for an investment by a foreign fund. It also comes just two days after @LeaderJohnThune initiated a process that would expedite a full floor vote on the GENIUS Act.
