On March 30, Cassidy announced new legislative efforts related to digital asset mining. He stated: “Digital asset mining is a big part of our economy. We should be doing it here in America. Proud to introduce the Mined in America Act with @SenLummis, which secures supply chains, backs U.S. manufacturing, and supports this key industry.
