Statement on the White House’s Meeting with Tech Industry Leaders

“Thank you to President Trump and his Administration for bringing industry leaders together at the White House today and for continuing to champion American leadership in digital assets. It was an honor to be part of this amazing group of innovators and builders, alongside SEC Chairman Atkins, CFTC Chairman Selig, and Patrick Witt.

This Administration has made clear that it is pro-innovation and pro-technology, and we are seeing meaningful momentum toward a policy environment that is focused on bringing innovation and jobs onshore and ensuring the United States leads the future of finance.

The next critical step is the Clarity Act. With a Senate vote set for September 15, we look forward to working with the President, his Administration, and senators on both sides of the aisle to get this legislation across the finish line and deliver the durable rules that consumers, businesses, and innovators need.”
