For years, anti-crypto armies, doomers, and decelerationists stifled innovation, regulating by enforcement and driving transformational technologies like blockchain, AI, and prediction markets overseas.
On August 20, the @CFTC is turning the page and charting a course for the new frontier of finance as innovators, builders, thinkers, and entrepreneurs descend upon Washington for the inaugural meeting of the Innovation Advisory Committee.
“American leadership in derivatives was built over generations through competitive markets, strong institutions, sound regulation, and a willingness to embrace innovation. Regulators around the world have long looked to the @CFTC as the standard setter for effective market oversight. Under my chairmanship, America will continue to define the field.”

For two and a half centuries, Americans have built, invested, and taken risks to create prosperity for future generations.
The @CFTC has played an important role in that story, helping farmers, businesses, workers, and entrepreneurs hedge risk, discover prices, and fuel economic growth for over five decades.
Here's to the next 250, America 🦅
Illinois lawmakers have placed the future of Chicago as a financial market hub at risk by instituting a “sin tax” on blockchain technology. The decelerationist law goes so far as to tax transfers of crypto assets that generate no economic gain. Subjecting Illinois residents to property ownership by permission rather than right.
As blockchain technology continues to transform our markets, the choice to plunder crypto wallets rather than promote economic growth may go down in history as Chicago’s last trade.

"Any time you have a loss of life it's a tragedy, but what we have here is law enforcement engaged in enforcing the law. What we need is for Americans to respect that.
"Federal policy must recognize that rural health care operates on different terms, and it must provide the flexibility to meet communities where they are."

.@RepBenCline joins me LIVE to expose how Obamacare wrecked the healthcare market and why Democrats would rather keep the government shut down than fix their own mess. Tune in NOW: https://t.co/znLmrh1OwL
Republicans did our jobs to prevent a disruptive and damaging government shutdown.
When the opportunity arose to prevent one, Democrats chose to embrace a shutdown crisis instead. ⬇️

Democrat Abigail @SpanbergerForVA will make Virginia a sanctuary state for illegal aliens if she is elected governor in November.
That’s a disastrous idea that would make Virginia less safe.
