Friend,

​We urgently need your help: Congress has added a provision to the infrastructure bill that would effectively destroy cryptocurrency and expand the government's surveillance powers. Luckily, Senators Wyden, Lummis and Toomey have written an amendment that would fix this broken language. Call your lawmakers now to demand they adopt the Wyden-Lummis-Toomey Amendment​ and protect cryptocurrency users' privacy. You need to act fast though, this amendment will likely be heard today. You can use Fight for the Future's form to contact your lawmakers now and tell them to stand up for digital privacy here.
