Digital Asset Regulation, Central Banking, and D.C. Voting Rights

This document addresses three key changes: new rules for digital assets, restrictions on Federal Reserve banks offering services directly to individuals, and prohibiting non-citizens from voting in District of Columbia elections. These changes could impact how digital currencies are used, access to banking services, and voting rights in the capital.
Key points
New Digital Asset Rules: Establishes a regulatory system for digital assets by two major financial commissions, potentially affecting the security and trading rules of cryptocurrencies.
Federal Reserve Restrictions: Prohibits Federal Reserve banks from offering products and services directly to individuals and bans the use of central bank digital currency for monetary policy, which could alter access to certain financial services.
D.C. Voting Rights: Prohibits non-U.S. citizens from voting in District of Columbia elections, directly impacting the electoral rights of D.C. residents.
