American Leadership in the Digital Age
summary
House passage of a prohibition on CBDC now rides on FISA reauthorization with a June deadline, arguing a CBDC would be a surveillance tool as exemplified by the digital yuan’s social‑scoring use. The session credits the Genius Act for enabling dollar‑backed stablecoins that lower remittance costs (example: faster, cheaper payments in Brazil) and says the Clarity Act must follow to give firms regulatory certainty. Grassroots pressure is real — 3 million StandWithCrypto supporters are cited as political leverage.
