Taylor Barr@taylorjbarr·
I’m excited to share that I’ve stepped into the role of Director of Government Relations @DigitalChamber Crypto is finally being understood in Washington as real infrastructure - shaping markets, modernizing payments, strengthening national security, and expanding economic freedom. With that shift, my work will center on deepening relationships across the Hill, pressing for long-overdue clarity, and ensuring the builders moving this industry forward are directly involved in shaping the policy that will define it. I’m grateful to @CodyCarboneDC and @ZuneraMazhar for their trust and leadership, and to my colleagues across @DigitalChamber for the support that makes this work possible. And a sincere thank-you to our TDC members - your expertise, partnership, and direct engagement with policymakers are what give this industry a strong and credible voice in Washington.

We just changed our profile picture. Here's why: The Clarity Act has passed the House and cleared the Senate Banking Committee. Now it needs a Senate floor vote before the August recess. Join us. Switch your profile picture and tell your Senators: Vote YES on Clarity. 👉 bit.ly/CLARITYACT

Critical week for Clarity, which also happens to be the one-year anniversary of GENIUS. A reminder of the incredible amount of hard work that has gone into this bill, but also of the time we’ve already lost. We cannot afford to delay any longer.

Congress is close to setting clear rules for digital assets. The Clarity Act protects everyday users and replaces guesswork with certainty for builders and innovators. Don't let uncertainty push innovation overseas. Tell your Senator to vote YES: bit.ly/CLARITYACT

Thank you Senator @RonWyden. Developers who never touch a single dollar of customer funds shouldn’t be treated like the banks holding them. That’s the whole idea behind the BRCA. Pass the CLARITY Act. Support the BRCA.

🚨NEWS: The National Organization of Black Law Enforcement Executives (NOBLE) has endorsed the Clarity Act, becoming the first major law enforcement organization to publicly support the legislation, which includes the Blockchain Regulatory Certainty Act (BRCA). In a letter to Senate leaders, @noblenatl says the bill “contains several provisions that would provide law enforcement with meaningful new capabilities while preserving longstanding criminal enforcement authorities.” Responding to concerns raised by other law enforcement groups, NOBLE adds that the legislation “does not alter the longstanding federal criminal authorities that investigators and prosecutors rely upon every day,” including statutes governing money laundering and unlicensed money transmitting businesses.

The Clarity Act has 16+ illicit finance safeguards, not loopholes: ✅ Sec 201: BSA/AML applies to crypto ✅ Sec 303: new sanctions to hit Iran ✅ Sec 305: exchanges can freeze dirty money If you don’t like crypto, then say it, but stop these baseless attacks.
Elizabeth Warren@SenWarren

More evidence that our adversaries exploit crypto to move billions. The Clarity Act, as it's currently written, would make this problem worse. Congress should be strengthening illicit finance standards, not creating new loopholes.

Financial literacy has to evolve with the new ways Americans save, spend, invest, and build wealth. With 70+ million Americans using digital assets, education is more essential than ever to ensure responsible participation. That’s why @DigitalChamber joined @RepBeatty and @RepYoungKim today to represent the digital asset/blockchain industry at the Financial Literacy & Wealth Creation Caucus resource fair on Capitol Hill!

What. A. Week. Two @DigitalChamber fly-ins across the Hill on Clarity + tax, along with TDC’s CEO @CodyCarboneDC testifying before Senate Banking and participating in a @GOPoversight roundtable. Long nights, hard work, and a lot of moving pieces, but none of it happens without the best team in the business. Proud, grateful, and more fired up than ever 🫡

Yesterday, @DigitalChamber filed an amicus in the 6th Circuit supporting the CFTC's exclusive power to regulate prediction markets. The case is about more than sports event contracts. It will determine whether states can override federally regulated derivatives markets. 1/🧵

This afternoon I'll testify before the @GOPOversight Military & Foreign Affairs Subcommittee on "Two Sides of a Digital Coin." The same transparency that lets a dissident protect her savings is what lets us trace and freeze an adversary's funds. America should lead on both.
