Rep. Tom Emmer: Digital assets will be a ‘sleeper issue’ for 2024 elections
He pointed to monetary privacy concerns, particularly pointing out government oversight of main bank digital currencies, or CBDCs. Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, a Republican polling second behind previous president Donald Trump, guaranteed in July to ban CBDCs in the U.S. should his campaign be successful. On Sept. 20, the House Financial Services Committee will meet in a markup session for the Digital Dollar Pilot Prevention Act– legislation that could forbid the Fed from initiating CBDC pilot programs without approval from Congress.
