The Senate had one job. They stripped the CBDC ban, passed a clean 45-day surveillance extension, and left Washington for recess.
In this video I break down exactly what happened, what the Anti-CBDC Surveillance State Act would have done and why it mattered, and what the fight looks like when Congress returns on May 11th ahead of the June 15th deadline.
What we cover:
— The House passed S. 1318 (235-191) with a full CBDC prohibition attached
— The Senate stripped it and passed a clean 45-day extension instead
— What the CBDC ban actually said — all four statutory prohibitions. More details on our Substack: https://conservativeladiesofamerica.substack.com/p/breaking-house-extends-warrantless
— Why a central bank digital currency is the final piece of the surveillance architecture
— Thomas Massie forced a floor debate and a recorded vote — and what he said on that floor
— What happens next and what you can do before June 15th
The next deadline is June 15th. The fight is not over.
