Texas Legislators Approve Digital Currency Protection in State's Bill of Rights
Texas lawmakers overwhelmingly passed an update to the state's Bill of Rights, granting Texans the right to own and use digital currencies. Bill HJR 146, introduced by State Representative Giovani Capriglione, received strong support with 139 votes in favor and only two against. The bill aims to protect financial privacy and prevent the devaluation of wealth. It is seen as a favorable alternative to banning central bank digital currencies (CBDCs), rendering them worthless instead. The bill will proceed to further votes before potentially becoming law.
