The GENIUS Act would undermine consumer protections, benefit criminal actors, and allow the Trump family to make tens of millions of dollars through crypto ventures. Join me LIVE as I discuss this dangerous bill, which poses serious risks to our economy. x.com/i/broadcasts/1…

Our country faces major health care, housing & climate crises. But tomorrow, the Senate will focus on a bipartisan bill pushed by crypto. Do you think their $245 million campaign spending last year has anything to do with it? That's politics. We need campaign finance reform.

THE most important political issue facing us now is our corrupt campaign finance system & Citizens United. As long as Musk, AIPAC & crypto money can buy politicians, we’re not living in a democracy. We must end billionaire control of our politics and publicly fund elections.
