Details
This resolution expresses the sense of the House of Representatives that the Federal Reserve should not develop, create, or implement a central bank digital currency (CBDC) or use it for monetary policy. The bill cites concerns that CBDCs could lead to dystopian state surveillance, increased government control over payments, financial censorship, and the undermining of free speech and financial independence, drawing comparisons to China's digital yuan and Canada's response to protests.
