The GENIUS Act is revolutionary for stablecoins. It protects consumers while promoting innovation and opportunity. It prioritizes national security and advances the U.S. dollar. Nebraska’s a major innovator in the stablecoin space and my amendment will give priority to states like ours when becoming certified. I am very happy that President Trump has signed this legislation into law. I look forward to working with Chairman @SenatorTimScott, @SenLummis and @SenatorHagerty on a digital asset market structure bill next.

We want to bring cryptocurrency into the mainstream, and the GENIUS Act will help us do that. It’s time to pass this bill.

The GENIUS Act is a historic first step in establishing a regulatory framework for stablecoins and asserting dollar dominance. I joined @SquawkCNBC on @CNBC to discuss.

Today, Democrats torpedoed a bill that would make America the global leader on stablecoin. This was a bipartisan bill. It received five Democrat votes in committee. This is Democrat hypocrisy putting politics over the country.

Democrats just unilaterally ceded American leadership capability in the digital asset industry to the CCP because they fear the far-left radicals of their party. Shameful.

The GENIUS Act protects consumers by:

Requiring all stablecoins to be backed 1-to-1

Giving consumers strong rights in bankruptcy

Establishing strict marketing standards
