Wishing a very Happy Birthday to my son, Joe! Your mother and I are so blessed to be your parents, and we hope your year is filled with happiness and success.
Parents deserve to have a say in what is taught in their child’s classrooms and should not be excluded from providing their input. That is why I was proud to co-sponsor the Parents Bill of Rights Act.
Wonderful to meet with my friend Dan Glessing today. He has been doing a fantastic job as the new President of @MNFarmBureau and I look forward to his continued leadership!
Today in @FinancialCmte, I asked @SBF_FTX about the extensive guardrails in place protecting crypto spot markets from fraud and manipulation. The SEC cites this concern as the reason they are barring access to Bitcoin spot ETFs. See my remarks here: youtube.com/3-DbHH3xgA4
Crypto isn’t a passing fad, it’s a legitimate financial tool used by millions. At this morning’s hearing, I hope my colleagues in @FinancialCmte will join me in demanding regulatory clarity for crypto. youtube.com/watch?v=4oOTvtup…
