I commend the decision by U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission to finally approve the ETP.

This week, I sent a letter with colleagues on both sides of the aisle asking for the SEC to maintain a consistent, fair, and equitable approach for digital asset-backed ETPs.

I'm glad to finally get this done.🇺🇸

Today, I sent a letter to U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission Chair Gary Gensler calling on the agency to withdraw its Staff Accounting Bulletin 121.
