Congressman Dan Meuser
@RepMeuser
Today I spoke on the House Floor in support of H.R. 1919—the Anti-CBDC Surveillance State Act—because defending the Constitution and protecting Americans’ financial privacy is non-negotiable.
Article I, Section 8 is clear: only Congress—not the Fed—has the authority to “coin Money, regulate the Value thereof.” A Central Bank Digital Currency would centralize unprecedented power in the federal government and could open the door to real‑time surveillance of every financial transaction in America.
This bill ensures the Fed cannot even consider launching a digital dollar and reaffirms Congress’s role as the rightful steward of our currency.
Thank you to (@GOPMajorityWhip ) and Chairman (@RepFrenchHill ) for leading this fight to check government overreach and defend the freedoms our republic was built on.
