protecting citizens from a grave threat to civil liberties… DeSantis War Room 🐊@DeSantisWarRoom
🚨 NEW: Gov. @RonDeSantisFL unveils legislation to BAN Central Bank Digital Currency in Florida, protecting citizens from a grave threat to civil liberties. Governor DeSantis is calling on other states to do the same, and is already in touch with Texas on this issue.🚨
South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem just vetoed a little-publicized, but extremely important bill that would have made it easier for the federal government to implement a central bank digital currency (CBDC). Stopping House Bill 1193 helps fend off one of the biggest threats to freedom facing Americans today.
In choosing to veto the legislation, Noem, a Republican, bravely took on her own party, which dominates South Dakota’s legislature. Hopefully, lawmakers in other states will soon take notice. Identical legislation is being offered in more than 20 other states, and many lawmakers — Republicans and Democrats alike — have continued to move the bills forward despite claiming in many cases to be opposed to the development of a digital dollar.
Similar legislation is now being considered in Arkansas, Montana, New Hampshire, North Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, and California, among many other states.
