Congressman Paul Gosar: “Americans don’t want a government-controlled digital dollar that can be used to monitor purchases, restrict transactions, or punish political dissent. A CBDC is incompatible with a free society. This bill permanently closes the door on that dangerous idea and protects Americans’ financial freedom from future abuse.”

Gosar, listed as an original cosponsor, said the Permanent CBDC Ban Act would permanently close the door on a government-controlled digital dollar and protect Americans' financial freedom.

Gosar promised to support the Permanent CBDC Ban Act. The evidence shows he was an original cosponsor of H.R. 10017 in the 119th Congress and publicly supported the bill's CBDC-ban purpose while in federal office. Because the promise was framed as support for the Act rather than securing enactment, formal cosponsorship and public backing satisfy the commitment in the same term.
