Whip Emmer: “For too long, America’s digital assets industry has been stifled by ambiguous rules, confusing enforcement, and the Biden administration’s anti-crypto crusade. But President Trump and this Congress are correcting course and unleashing America’s digital asset potential with historic, transformative legislation. President Trump promised to make America the crypto capital of the world, and today we delivered. The GENIUS Act, the CLARITY Act, and our Anti-CBDC Surveillance State Act deliver on the America First digital assets agenda by solidifying the dollar’s dominance as the world’s reserve currency, spurring innovation by creating regulatory certainty with clear market structure, and ensuring that any development of digital money reflects our American values of privacy, individual sovereignty, and free market competitiveness. Together, these three pieces of legislation set the stage for growth, innovation, and prosperity right here in the United States of America. I’d like to thank Chairman Hill, Chairman Thompson, and Chairman Steil, and my friend Dusty Johnson…for their steadfast leadership, and I’m very grateful for that, on digital assets in this great House of Representatives. And I’d especially like to thank the 45th and 47th President of the United States of America, Donald J. Trump. We would not be celebrating these wins today without his vision of America on top in the global digital economy.”
