Stop the Senate from sneaking through total surveillance of the crypto-economy: call 517-200-9518

Senator Kyrsten Sinema and Senator Rob Portman

In the 11th hour, the Senate has snuck in an infrastructure bill provision that would dramatically expand financial surveillance of the crypto-economy. Policies that impact basic freedom and the future of the Internet should be debated carefully and should never be attached to must-pass bills.

As lead negotiators for their respective parties, it is critical that we strongly urge Senator Kyrsten Sinema and Senator Rob Portman to remove this vastly overreaching provision from the infrastructure bill as soon as possible. The Senate votes on this tomorrow, so we have to move fast!

The most important thing you can do is to call their DC offices at 517-200-9518. The number will connect you to both.

When a staff member answers, tell them:

“Hi, I’m calling to ask that you remove the cryptocurrency provision from the infrastructure bill. This provision would dramatically expand financial surveillance, harm innovation, and undermine human rights. Policies that impact basic freedom and the future of the Internet should be debated carefully and should never be attached to must-pass bills. Thank you.”

After that, sign this petition and share this page.
