U.S. Representatives Tom Emmer (R-Minn.), Darren Soto (D-Fla.) and Ro Khanna (D-Calif) have reintroduced a bill to define how federal regulators should treat cryptocurrencies. If signed into law, the Securities Clarity Act would treat digital assets as commodities, not securities, meaning startups would be free to sell and trade cryptocurrencies without having to worry about registering them as securities with the Securities Exchange Commission (SEC). Emmer, the bill's lead sponsor and a member of the Congressional Blockchain Caucus, said "regulatory uncertainty" has been harmful to the crypto industry's growth within the U.S. "There has been an unreasonable approach by regulators as to how federal securities laws should be applied to transactions involving the sale of blockchain-based tokens, and this lack of clarity is hurting American innovation,โ Emmer said. This bill has been endorsed by the Chamber of Digital Commerce, the Blockchain Association and Coin Center.

Members of Congress are urging the federal government to use blockchain solutions to boost COVID-19 relief efforts. In a Wednesday letter addressed to the U.S. President Donald Trump and federal officials, lawmakers said blockchain technology can help identify and authenticate individuals set to receive government benefits, streamline supply chains and create a registry of medical professionals. This is the latest development in a trend of U.S. lawmakers actively advocating for blockchain applications and virtual currencies, with representatives re-introducing bipartisan legislation in January that would reduce the tax burden on small crypto transactions, and Massachusetts Representative Stephen Lynch (D-Mass.) proposing a bill in April to record national stockpiles on a blockchain. The letter was led by the four co-chairs of the Congressional Blockchain Caucus: Reps. Tom Emmer (R-Minn.), Bill Foster (D-Ill.), David Schweikert (R-Ariz.) and Darren Soto (D-Fla.). They were joined by Caucus members Stephen Lynch, Warren Davidson (R-Ohio), Jerry McNerney (D-Calif.), Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.) and Ro Khanna (D-Calif.).

December 31, 2020 Washington, D.C. - Today, Congressman Tom Emmer (MN-06), Congressman Bill Foster (IL-11), Congressman David Schweikert (AZ-06), Congressman Darren Soto (FL-09), Congressman Warren Davidson (OH-08), Congresswoman Suzan K. DelBene (WA-01), Congressman Ted Budd (NC-13), Congress Woman Tulsi Gabbard (HI-02) and Senator Tom Cotton (AR) sent a letter to Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin to express concerns regarding a limited comment period to respond to a recently released rule making significant changes to the regulation of digital assets. The rule was announced on December 18, 2020, and comments must be received by January 4, 2021. The Financial Crimes Enforcement Networkโs (FinCEN) rule would require certain members of the cryptocurrency industry to submit additional reports and keep records relating to customer identities if transactions are made above certain thresholds. The additional data collection also pertains to unhosted wallets, which do not require a financial institution to conduct transactions. โThe blockchain industry and cryptocurrency innovations are constantly and rapidly evolving. Government frequently struggles to keep up. We owe it to this community to be fair, transparent, and open to stakeholder advice," said Emmer.
