Very Pro-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.

My colleagues and I are investigating how terrorist groups like Hamas are able to gain funding using cryptocurrency. The U.S. needs to take action to address this problem before Hamas can finance another attack. thehill.com/policy/technol…

Earlier this year, I led my subcommittee in launching an investigation into fraud in the crypto industry. Last week, I expanded our investigation to include the collapse of @FTX_Official. cnn.com/2022/11/18/bus…

The sudden collapse of @FTX_Official is another reason why we need increased regulation in cryptocurrency to protect investors. My investigation through @OversightDems into crypto companies and exchanges will help protect Americans more in the future. wsj.com/articles/ftx-t…

As cryptocurrency markets continue to grow, so too does the risk of consumers falling prey to new fraud schemes. I wrote in @Newsweek about the need for increased regulation in cryptocurrency markets to protect both investors and companies alike. newsweek.com/cryptocurrency…

I launched this investigation because, as cryptocurrencies have exploded in reach, popularity and value, so too has the growth in related fraud and consumer abuse as bad actors have sought to prey upon investors. washingtonpost.com/business/2022/…
