After Governor JB Pritzker’s Administration testified in strong support of a legislative overreach in the Illinois House Financial Institutions Committee today to overregulate and end the cryptocurrency industry (HB742) in Illinois, House Minority Leader Tony McCombie issued the following statement:
“This is a ridiculous bill. I cannot stress enough – Illinois families deserve to be the priority, not Governor Pritzker’s presidential ambitions. Our state is facing real problems, and instead of addressing the chaos under his watch, he is wasting time with political grandstanding. Our state is facing real problems that deserve serious solutions, and cryptocurrency is not one of them.”
