In the @FintechPolicyUS's webinar on regulatory turf wars. DIDMCA has just gotten brought up and Brian said "a lot of ink has been spilled on DIDMCA, maybe even by some people on this call."
Can't know for sure if this is about me, but I am on the webinar and I do feel seen.

Tremendous congrats to one of our founding members on this huge milestone!
Today we received conditional approval from the OCC for Upstart Bank, N.A.
Operating inside a unified federal framework will help us streamline operations, expand our 50-state reach, and build a more accessible credit ecosystem powered by AI.

Looks like the House Financial Services Committee will advance a bipartisan “earned wage access” bill today — Rep. Liccardo (D-Calif) said he’d support if the panel embraced an amendment he offered, and Republicans agreed. Senior Democrats are opposed to the EWA bill

Under the leadership of @POTUS and @SecScottBessent, we are implementing the Executive Order, Restoring Integrity to America’s Financial System, and reinforcing the principles that have guided our banking system for generations.
Banks must know their customers, understand the risks they face, and help safeguard the integrity of the financial system. Economic security is national security, and a strong financial system must work for law-abiding individuals, families, and businesses, not those seeking to abuse it.

There are many "AI in financial services" conversations out there; this is not one of those. Let's get specific about AI in #payments and #lending and talk about what the future might hold. #fintech #partnerbanking
Thanks to @FintechPolicyUS for hosting!

#EWA programs benefit workers across the country, making it more likely that they will be able to avoid high-cost credit products like #PaydayLoans. Efforts to restrict them will harm consumers, writes @YPGoldfeder, of @FintechPolicyUS, in @AmerBanker @BankThink. More here: bit.ly/4ts5kNM

Very well said! A must read 👇if you care about rational and appropriate regulation and compromise!
Senate Banking Committee leadership and the White House have been working incredibly hard to reach a compromise on payment stablecoin yield/rewards. The current language around yield is a strong step forward towards getting the Clarity Act over the finish line. It's a fair and reasonable compromise but most importantly it will make crypto permissibility for banks a law not an interpretative letter. We need a durable regulatory environment for digital assets and all players involved. Don’t let any one entity divide you. At this point (there is no tomorrow) you must lead from the front and not let any company stand in your way. By uniting together now, we can help drive forward safe and reliable digital asset adoption. United you stand!

Let federally regulated banks—including community banks—offer yield on payment stablecoins and let's finish the job on digital asset market structure. My op-ed: coindesk.com/opinion/2026/02… via @coindesk

People don’t often expect how easy it can be to work with colleagues across the aisle.
At the 2025 American Fintech Council Policy Summit (@FintechPolicyUS), I joined a panel of legislators from around the country for Statehouses to Startups: Legislating the Future of Finance One State at a Time.
In this clip, I share how conversations after hearings and in informal moments often get good ideas moving, and how treating staff well is key to making collaboration work.
Stay tuned for more from this panel discussion.

Yelling, laughing, and at least one person dramatically leaving over the pumpkin v pecan argument! Now it's really #Thanksgiving!
