GOP Lawmakers Push To Bar Illegal Immigrants From US Banking System

By Pedro Rodriguez | The Daily Signal FIRST ON THE DAILY SIGNAL—Citing concerns that access to financial services incentivizes illegal immigration and could aid terrorism, Rep. Keith Self, R‑Texas, introduced legislation Thursday that would bar illegal aliens from the U.S. banking system by requiring banks to collect customers’ citizenship or immigration status. “Access to America’s financial system is reserved for those who respect our laws—not for illegal aliens who break them,” Self told The Daily Signal. “Those who enter illegally should not be rewarded with taxpayer‑backed banking services.

No to CBDCs, yes to dollar-backed crypto: Trump signs GENIUS Act

By Ross O'Keefe | Washington Examiner https://www.youtube.com/live/iRPsG-Nxko4?feature=shared President Donald Trump is signing the GENIUS Act, which will regulate stablecoin cryptocurrencies, whose values are pegged to the U.S. dollar, at around 2:30 p.m. Friday. Trump needed to convince about a dozen Republicans to vote for the bill after they stalled it due to certain provisions not included in the bill, namely, the lack of a ban on central bank digital currency. They agreed to vote for it after the president’s intervention. READ THE FULL STORY AT THE WASHINGTON EXAMINER
