US lawmaker will reintroduce crypto retirement bill to help Trump agenda

For the second time, Alabama Senator Tommy Tuberville is set to reintroduce a bill aimed at allowing Americans to add cryptocurrency to their retirement savings plans.In a March 31 Fox News interview, Sen. Tuberville said he planned to reintroduce his “Financial Freedoms Act” legislation after two failed attempts to get the legislation through Congress in 2022 and 2023. In announcing the bill, the Alabama senator said he wanted to help US President Donald Trump’s perceived role as a “crypto president.” “Give people a chance to breathe for once [...] let them do what they do best [which] is invest their money,” said the senator. The Financial Freedom Act, which Tuberville first introduced in the US Senate in May 2022, proposed scaling back regulations with the Department of Labor over the types of investments used in 401(k) retirement plan fiduciaries. The senator said he would reintroduce the bill on April 1, but congressional records showed no movement at the time of publication.Related: Trump-linked crypto ventures may complicate US stablecoin policyThis is a developing story, and further information will be added as it becomes available.Weiter zum vollständigen Artikel bei Cointelegraph Weiter zum vollständigen Artikel bei CointelegraphWeiter zum vollständigen Artikel bei Cointelegraph Weiter zum vollständigen Artikel bei Cointelegraph
