Crypto billionaires, their lobbyists, and Donald Trump are pushing lawmakers to pass sweeping legislation that would weaken oversight, legitimize risky crypto products, and expose consumers and investors to more fraud and instability.
These bills would give the crypto industry exactly what it has been spending millions to achieve: lighter rules, weaker enforcement, and a financial system that allows predatory actors to operate with fewer consequences.
Americans for Financial Reform is helping lead the fight to stop it.
Last year, grassroots pressure helped stop versions of these bills three different times. A nationwide coalition of consumer advocates, labor unions, civil rights organizations, and community groups worked together to expose the risks and demand that Congress reject the crypto industry’s wish list.
Now the industry is trying again. Crypto billionaires and lobbyists are ramping up political pressure on Congress, hoping lawmakers will buckle and pass legislation that prioritizes their profits over consumer protection and financial stability.
AFR is fighting back by briefing lawmakers, mobilizing a nationwide coalition, exposing the dangers of these bills in the press, and organizing grassroots pressure to stop them before they become law.
