80 year old @SenMarkey believes the federal government is just not spending nearly enough money. He wants to be re-elected to another 6 year term. The good people of Massachusetts will decide on Nov. 3, 2026. @DeatonforSenate

The 2024 election proved the importance of the crypto voter. @standwithcrypto is now much bigger, with over 4M members. Crypto voters will remember who stepped up and who didn't.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: DEATON: MARKEY WAS SILENT WHILE HEALEY HANDED DATA CENTERS A 20-YEAR, $50 MILLION TAX BREAK BOSTON, MA — U.S. Senate candidate @DeatonforSenate today criticized @EdMarkey for staying silent as @MassGovernor signed a 20-year sales and use tax exemption for qualified data centers, a 2024 incentive tied to a $50 million investment threshold. “Governor Healey gave data centers a 20-year tax break, and Senator Markey said nothing,” Deaton said. “Massachusetts families already pay some of the highest electricity rates in the country. Corporate operators get the deal. Ratepayers get the bill.” The exemption remains on the books even after Healey later paused applications amid concerns over energy costs, water use, and community impact. Eligibility includes at least 100,000 square feet of space, 100 Massachusetts jobs within five years, and $50 million in qualified costs within 10 years. Deaton said he supports technology, not one-sided giveaways. Developers should bring their own power, pay for infrastructure, and win real local consent. “After 50 years in Washington, Markey was silent when it counted,” Deaton said. “Massachusetts needs a senator who puts working families first.” #mapoli #MASen #Deaton

Hey @SenGillibrand I'll see your ethics red herring and raise you a Nancy Pelosi which you never had a problem with.
@GOPMajorityWhip I said it and I meant it, but I also said we needed a strong ethics provision or it wouldn’t pass. The reason the bill failed was the president’s corruption and a GOP Congress all too comfortable with it. We get meaningful ethics, we pass Clarity. One man’s greed stands in the way.

The good news! Trump can (and should) launch a new meme coin everyday for the next two years. There are now ZERO laws and ZERO ethics provisions. Plus, we get to keep stablecoin yield that the banks were all so concerned with. Good job, glad you got ZERO instead of something.
Today, I voted no on the Clarity Act, legislation meant to regulate cryptocurrency in America. The ethics provisions in this bill are simply too thin. President Trump, his children, and his Cabinet are making billions of dollars in the crypto space, in part from bilking everyday Americans out of their hard-earned money. I cannot in good conscience vote for any legislation that codifies that behavior from public officials. Not for President Trump or Secretary Lutnick today, nor for any Democrat who may take advantage of it in the future. On the national security front, there is more to be done to make sure we have the tools in place to stop money laundering and shut down funding avenues for terrorists and nations like North Korea and Iran. This was essential after 9/11 and remains essential to keep Americans safe. And as of now, our agencies, including the CFTC, lack the necessary oversight and staffing to implement this legislation, and that should be addressed. There are strong, bipartisan provisions in this bill that could serve as the foundation for a new attempt at providing the crypto industry with the guardrails it needs. I believe that the U.S. should lead the world in cryptocurrency innovation, but we need to get it right. I remain open-minded to that work ahead.

🚨NEW: Former @CFTC Chairman @giancarloMKTS tells me the Senate’s failure to pass the Clarity Act is a disappointment but will not stop the “march of innovation” in the U.S. “@SECPaulSAtkins and @ChairmanSelig are determined to do what their jobs require them to do and put in place sound regulatory frameworks that ensure that financial innovation, market modernization and economic growth take place under U.S. law and not outside it,” he said. Tomorrow at the @avax Summit in NYC, I’ll be sitting down for a timely discussion with Giancarlo and fellow former SEC and CFTC commissioners @timmassad, Troy Paredes and Caroline Crenshaw.

Replying to @SenTimKaine
Dear senator, with respect, your knowledge or advisers have given you a royal bum steer. Cryptocurrency in its current for is corrupt, and money laundering occurs because most guardrails reject anything related to crypto so projects resort to direct crypto use without guardrails. I speak from experience, banking system rejects crypto related project payments, e.g. to pay by credit card for say crypto related services. So I resort to crypto only payments. Even central bank paper money was used for all sorts of crimes like counterfeiting, and bank robberies when the baking system was new. To reject it like this shows your lack of understanding of what your constituents want. Your post will likely mean your political career is over. Best of luck.

1/ This one stings. Our team gave everything we had to get the Clarity Act across the finish line. So did most of the industry. This was an opportunity bigger than Ripple or one company - we did this for the industry, for consumers and to cement the US’s position as the crypto capital of the world and as a leader in the future of finance. Ultimately, consumers and U.S. competitiveness got left behind. 2/ A post mortem needs to be done on why this failed (more from me on that in the days ahead). The politics of the democrats (the anti-crypto army) was elevated over good policy. 3/ There is still reason for optimism for crypto in the United States. Now, the SEC, under Chair Atkins, and the CFTC, under Chair Selig, will continue to work hard to issue rules to fill the legislative gap and we will continue to be actively engaged in that rule making process. 4/ Ripple's business has never been stronger — real demand across traditional finance and the digital asset ecosystem. A missed vote in Washington doesn't change our momentum, our global footprint, or our customers.

F Around and Find Out @TheDemocrats
Patrick Witt delivered @TheDemocrats most everything they asked for on CLARITY Act. Ethics provision empowering State AGs, watered down DeFi protections, circuit breaker on stablecoin yield/bank deposit flight. Now Democrats are moving the goalposts yet again. A mistake for the country and party. @SenLummis @patrickjwitt

Clarity cloture vote today at 2:15pm ET. Texas, your Senator says he's undecided. Now is the final push. Urge your Senator to vote YES on cloture: crypto-law.us/connect-to-con…
Sen. John Cornyn (R-Texas) says he’s undecided on voting for cloture on the Clarity Act tomorrow, pointing to concerns from law enforcement groups and banks. Cornyn wants an update on the latest text. “I'm still considering how to vote,” Cornyn told reporters tonight.

Thank you Senator Lummis, you’ve done everything you could possibly do but the democrats will simply not allow a win for the crypto president @realDonaldTrump . Maybe if the mid-terms weren’t less than 2 months away. Touché crypto Karen @SenWarren …touché.
It's becoming clear that some Democrats simply won't get to yes, no matter what we put in the text. President Trump has now agreed to two historic ethics provisions — provisions these very members demanded. We've given you everything you’ve asked for, yet you keep holding the bill hostage, demanding more and more and more. It's beyond frustrating. There's nothing left to give.

Now is a great time ask Sen.Warren exactly who is it exactly that she represents? We know the people of #Massachusetts want it.✅️ America wants it. ✅️ Banks regardless of public posturing, they want it.✅️ Regulators are want it. ✅️ Crypto industry wants it. ✅️ TradFi institutions want it. ✅️ Law enforcement wants it. ✅️ This Administration wants it. ✅️ Again, who is Sen.Warren and her anti-crypto army representing exactly?
🇺🇸 BREAKING: Senator Lummis says Democrats are holding the CLARITY Act "hostage" the night before the cloture vote. "President Trump has now agreed to two historic ethics provisions, provisions these very members demanded. There's nothing left to give." This came after Senator Warner said the ethics provision is "not near enough."
