Voted against 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.

As President Trump’s family reaps billions in corrupt crypto schemes, he is attempting to pressure lawmakers into passing crypto legislation that would unleash financial scammers and threaten the financial stability of families across the country. That’s why I’m voting NO!

Not only does President Trump pose a serious conflict of interest with his own crypto ventures, but he’s also trying to write the rules to benefit himself and his entire family. It’s corruption, plain and simple.

Cryptocurrency has the opportunity to play a major role in finance, however, too often these currencies are being used to fund hate groups and terror organizations. wsj.com/articles/jihad…
