Ingenuity and innovation are hallmarks of the American Experience. It’s time that our nation and our elected leaders begin developing thoughtful plans for digital assets and all the credible opportunities presented by crypto and blockchain technology. As your next congressman, I will make sure the United States continues to lead in finance including a pro-crypto, innovation friendly environment. I know there are meaningful and tested crypto policies that can modernize business and I will work to move these policies forward without unnecessary regulations. However, to be clear, the Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC) is not the route we should go as a nation, and I would 100% oppose a CBDC.
