While Congress has been hard at work to establish a regulatory framework for digital assets though #FIT21, time and time again, @SECgov has chosen to bring numerous enforcement actions in an attempt to front-run Congress. Watch more ⬇️ https://t.co/6BtXQveJhj

Former President Trump said America needs to lead the way in #crypto and #digitalasset innovation and I fully agree. My #FIT21 bill is crucial in creating a regulatory framework for digital assets that protects consumers and investors while keeping innovation in the US.

Americans have a right to financial privacy. We do not need a #CBDC that can track your purchases like China does with their Digital Yuan. The authority rests with Congress, not unelected bureaucrats, to create and implement a CBDC. And that’s non-partisan.

@FinancialCmte is countering @GaryGensler and @SECGov on their unreasonable mandates that negatively affect businesses and the #crypto ecosystem. America should be the leader in web 3 development and digital asset innovation. WATCH⬇️ | @MorningsMaria https://t.co/zQju62oFcf

The FIT for the 21st Century Act, coauthored by myself and members on @HouseAgGOP, will provide clarity on the @SECGov and @CFTC's jurisdiction over digital assets, fill the gaps in the existing system and provide robust consumer protections. More ⬇️ #FIT21 @FinancialCmte https://t.co/dDYH3efJTX

I am committed to protecting consumer privacy and am working to stop any and all efforts by Democrats to develop a federal CBDC to spy on the American people. I introduced a bill that would ensure that the government studies what guardrails would be necessary to protect consumers

I understand why Americans are concerned about CBDCs and the potential for a Big-Brother-like surveillance state. I share these concerns. It is a priority of mine to make sure the federal government cannot and does not proceed with issuing a CBDC without Congressional approval.

There’s a fair amount of agreement between @FinancialCmte Rs and @FSCDems when it comes to stablecoins, starting with their potential to improve the efficiency, cost, and speed of payments; expanding financial access; and facilitating the use and adoption of digital assets.

For years, @RepBillFoster and I have advocated for the careful, thoughtful approach in designing a CBDC. While I am pleased to read Federal Reserve’s new report, I am disappointed it was released months behind schedule. It is important to not delay the work on CBDCs any further.
