Recent Stances On Crypto
Senator Cynthia Lummis
@SenLummis
I appreciate my colleagues' concerns about ethics, but @SenWarren and @SenJeffMerkley’s amendment would seriously harm American innovation and competitiveness. If we are serious about ethics, let’s ensure digital assets receive the same treatment as other financial assets.
USD1—a stablecoin linked to President Trump and his family—is now the second most traded in the world.
Next week, the House is voting on a bill that would let Trump’s crypto cash machine keep growing with no guardrails.
Congress can rein in this corruption—or greenlight it.
For years, miners and stakers have been taxed TWICE. Once when they receive block rewards, and again when they sell it.
It’s time to stop this unfair tax treatment and ensure America is the world’s Bitcoin and Crypto Superpower.
America leads in financial innovation, and thanks to President Trump, we are keeping it that way! I am working on an OBBB amendment to ensure Americans can use digital assets without fear of tax violations. More to come soon!
It was great to join Bitcoin Policy Institute’s 2025 Summit with my friend @RepRitchie to discuss commonsense, bipartisan ways to promote American innovation in blockchain and stablecoin markets.
Thanks for having us, @btcpolicyorg!
Getting down to business at the Subcommittee on Digital Assets hearing this week. It is so exciting to be at the forefront of innovation and making America the crypto capital of the world!
President Trump knows that our economic supremacy hinges on our ability to be a global force in the digital assets space.
The United States is open for business, and I am committed to working with my @BankingGOP colleagues to ensure we are the crypto capital of the world.
Had a productive & delightful fireside chat with @SenatorTimScott and @BoHines this morning. Market structure legislation is crucial to positioning America as the leader in financial innovation, and making it a welcoming home for digital asset innovators.
It was a pleasure to join @GOPMajorityWhip at the 2025 Bitcoin Policy Summit - highlighting key updates on Bitcoin policy. A special thank you to @matthew_pines and @btcpolicyorg for hosting an incredible and productive summit.
It’s a new era for the digital assets industry in Washington.
Working with @POTUS – and leaders like @SenLummis and @BoHines47 – we’re going to deliver regulatory clarity and drive innovation.
The Biden admin’s hostility towards crypto stifled innovation, and President Trump has taken a 180 approach.
It was a pleasure to join the Bitcoin Policy Institute Summit to discuss why we must support America’s leadership in digital asset innovation.
@btcpolicyorg
President Trump promised to make the U.S. the crypto capital of the world, and it’s our job to deliver legislation worthy of @POTUS’ signature. America can’t afford to wait.
Great conversation with @WarrenDavidson & @josephkelly about #bitcoin self-custody, which Congress’ digital asset “market structure bill,” the CLARITY Act, would infringe upon (in my view). @btcpolicyorg
At @btcpolicyorg today, I broke down how the CLARITY Act gives Bitcoin the structure it needs for innovators to succeed—CFTC jurisdiction, market trust, and regulatory certainty. President Trump expects this done by August. We’re on track to get it done.
Bitcoin is an important emerging asset, provides an historic opportunity for diversification of America’s balance sheet, and deserves serious policy consideration. Excited to join @GOPMajorityWhip Tom Emmer for a fireside chat at Bitcoin Policy Summit 2025 to talk all things Bitcoin on Capitol Hill.
@SenLummis@exploringidaho We need a guarantee that the US government wont go after our bags in DeFi when a new administration rolls with a different outlook on crypto, please consider adding Congressman @WarrenDavidson Keep Your Coin Act to protect self custody
I joined @SquawkCNBC to discuss what the market structure principles mean for clear & innovative digital asset legislation. Listen now. https://t.co/CGd8jVYcol
Proud to team up with @SenatorTimScott, @SenThomTillis, and @SenatorHagerty to unveil critical digital asset market structure principles to help guide clear & innovative legislation for the industry.
I look forward to advancing digital asset market structure legislation here in the Senate.
Today, I released principles that will serve as an important baseline for negotiations on this bill. WATCH:
Proud to stand with my @USHouseFSC colleagues as @federalreserve Chairman Powell testified before the committee today.
While Republicans push tax breaks for billionaires and try to gut consumer protections, we’re focused on lowering costs, protecting your savings, and holding big banks and crypto scammers accountable.
"Banks are free to provide banking services to the crypto industry," Fed Chair Powell says during his testimony in front the Congress.
Hear what he said
Pro-digital assets. Pro-innovation. Pro-America.
These market structure principles will guide legislation to make the U.S. the crypto capital of the world.
Proud to team up with @SenatorTimScott, @SenThomTillis, and @SenatorHagerty to unveil critical digital asset market structure principles to help guide clear & innovative legislation for the industry.
In February, I exposed the Fed’s aggressive reputation risk policies that assassinated American bitcoin & digital asset businesses.
Today, the Fed announced it will scrap reputation risk as a factor in its bank supervision. This is a win, but there is still more work to be done.
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.
The "Blockchain Regulatory Certainty Act" (H.R. 3533) provides a safe harbor for non-controlling blockchain developers and service providers, exempting them from being classified as money transmitters or financial institutions, and thus from associated licensing and registration requirements, unless they have control over users' digital assets. This aims to prevent such entities from incurring liability for unlicensed or unregistered conduct.
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.
