Official Team Britt Newsletter | | | Katie Britt calls out Biden administration after Bitcoin surge, urges new SEC Chair | U.S. Senator Katie Britt is critiquing the Biden-Harris Administration for its restrictive policies relating to the digital currency, Bitcoin.
The policies under fire relate to crypto regulation and in particular Operation Chokepoint 2.0. According to Forbes, Barack Obama began the process of working to restrict access to financial services for businesses deemed “high-risk.” After President Biden took over, the operation expanded to include a significant crackdown on the crypto industry, including on Bitcoin. At the President’s direction, the Securities Exchange Commission has since “pursued case-by-case enforcement actions against major crypto firms.”
Britt, who accepted Bitcoin in her campaign effort, called the rise in value “another clear repudiation of the Biden Administration’s policies” and explained the significance of Bitcoin. | | | Katie Britt says Lara Trump ‘would be a tremendous pick’ to fill Marco Rubio’s U.S. Senate seat | As the cabinet of President-Elect Donald Trump begins to take shape, U.S. Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL) is expected to become the next U.S. Secretary of State. Upon accepting the position and confirmation, Rubio will vacate his seat in the Senate allowing Florida Governor Ron DeSantis the opportunity to fill it with a handpicked successor.
One name now being floated to take over the Senate seat is Lara Trump, the President-elect’s daughter-in-law.
The possibility of Trump being given the role is picking up support from conservative lawmakers in Washington, including U.S. Senator Katie Britt. | | | 'I And My Colleagues Won’t Stand for This': Republican Sen.
