U.S. Representative Tom Emmer, who supports the cryptocurrency industry, said: "I am honored to be selected as Vice Chairman of the Digital Assets, Financial Technology and Artificial Intelligence Subcommittee.
With President Trump in the White House and Gary Gensler in the Washington Dumpster, we have a great opportunity to ensure that the future of digital assets is guided by Americans and follows American values.
I look forward to working with Chairman French Hill, Chairman Bryan Steil and other colleagues to create an environment where digital asset innovation can thrive."
Earlier today, French Hill, Chairman of the U.S. House Financial Services Committee, has appointed Tom Emmer as Vice Chairman of the Digital Assets, Financial Technology and Artificial Intelligence Subcommittee. He also nominated other Republican members of the committee.
