Senate Rejects Corrupt Crypto Bill
WASHINGTON, D.C. – The U.S. Senate today rejected advancement of a cryptocurrency bill. On a vote of 49-50, the Senate failed to reach the 60-vote threshold required to continue debate. Bartlett Naylor, economist for Public Citizen, released the following statement:
“With this vote, responsible senators defied the septic spill of political spending by the crypto sector and denounced President Trump’s historic crypto corruption. Trump has netted more than $1.4 billion on his scams, which cost his victims more than $4.7 billion. No Democrats voted for the bill, and Congress should continue to reject these corrupt crypto schemes.”
