The Blockchain Association has expressed its support following the advancement of three significant pieces of legislation: the CLARITY Act, the GENIUS Act, and the Anti-CBDC Surveillance State Act. CEO Summer Mersinger released a statement recognizing the efforts made by leaders in both the White House and Congress.
“The policymaking process is not always perfect, but our leaders in the White House and in Congress deserve recognition for their tireless efforts to get this critical legislation pushed forward," Mersinger stated. "Today’s votes on the CLARITY Act, the GENIUS Act, and Anti-CBDC Surveillance State Act represent a pivotal moment for America’s leadership in the global digital asset economy."
Mersinger emphasized that these bipartisan bills focus not only on compliance and consumer protection but also on securing responsible financial innovation within America. “Together, these bipartisan bills are not just about compliance and consumer protection; they are about securing the future of responsible financial innovation in America," she said.
By moving these bills forward, Congress aims to preserve U.S. dollar primacy, strengthen national economic leadership, and ensure future technologies are developed domestically. "By advancing these bills, Congress is voting to preserve the primacy of the U.S. dollar, reinforce our national economic leadership, and ensure that the technologies of tomorrow are built right here at home,” Mersinger concluded.
