Does Buddy Carter Support Crypto?

Voted for a bill on 2025-07-17

Bill Name

GENIUS Act

Details

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.

The CLARITY, Genius, and Anti-CBDC Surveillance State Acts are CRITICAL to making America the global hub for digital assets. @HouseGOP is answering President Trump’s call to make the U.S. the crypto capital of the world.

Crypto will be a key component of the future. America should be taking the lead. That’s why I’m proud to support the #GENIUSAct and call on Georgia’s Senators to do the same.
