What happened with #GameStop this week is basically unprecedented. At one point, there were 38% MORE outstanding claims to GameStop stock than stock that actually existed! Good news: we can fix this with #blockchain
If shares of stock were issued on a #blockchain, #MainStreet investors would own their own shares of stock (currently, just a claim on your broker), #WallStreet can be more efficient and regulators like @SEC_News can more accurately monitor the market.
Banning energy leasing on federal lands would be catastrophic for western states that are already reeling from the decline in energy usage brought on by the pandemic and continued volatility in energy markets.
It’s a one-two punch that means disaster for energy jobs, families and communities. That’s why I authored a bill prohibiting any bans on federal leasing without the consent of Congress.
A mere 24 hours ago, President Biden stood before America promising to unify our nation. Yet on day one, he took divisive actions to devastate Wyoming’s economy.
Make no mistake about it, the Biden Ban is a strike on the heart of Wyoming jobs, families and communities. His actions to appease the radical left will be borne disproportionately on the shoulders of states like Wyoming with high amounts of federal lands.
This unilateral action will kill jobs, raise gas and energy prices, and further harm our ability to fund our schools, roads, hospitals, and other critical infrastructure. The price of this ban is simply one the people of Wyoming cannot afford.
