BREAKING: The state of Pennsylvania has passed ‘Bitcoin Rights’ in the House by a sweeping majority. Both Republicans and Democrats united together to pass the bill.

Pennsylvania is poised to be the most important state in the ‘24 election & this bill is poised to play a role👇

Pennsylvania is consistently one of the most competitive swing states in presidential elections, with both parties vying for its critical electoral votes.

Pennsylvania holds 19 electoral votes, a significant prize that could tip the balance in a tight race.

Pennsylvania, has been a key swing state and has been a bellwether for previous elections

In 2016, President Trump won the state by just 0.7% . And in 2020, Biden won the state by a little more than 1%.

Pennsylvania is a critical state to win on the path to the Oval Office.

The state features a politically diverse electorate, ranging from urban, suburban, and rural voters, making it a true test of a candidate’s ability to appeal across demographics.

The state has a significant number of independent and moderate voters who could be swayed by key policy positions, making it a critical battleground for both parties.

In addition to its pivotal role in recent elections, Pennsylvania’s importance is further highlighted by figures like Elon Musk, who has been spending time in the state, recognizing its strategic significance for shaping national dialogue & influencing the 2024 election outcome.

Why ‘BITCOIN RIGHTS’ Matters for the 2024 Election:

Bitcoin adoption is expanding, creating a new and motivated voter base actively searching for political allies who support financial freedom and innovation. Currently, they do not have a home.

Bitcoin voters tend to be highly engaged and vocal about their political preferences, meaning their turnout could be disproportionately high compared to their numbers.

Bitcoiners are highly entrenched to vote in favor of politicians who support bitcoin.

Support for Bitcoin transcends traditional party lines, appealing to voters who prioritize economic freedom, technological innovation, and digital privacy.

Bitcoin also provides a pathway to escape CBDCs, an issue top of mind to many voters.

Voters increasingly seek leaders who understand and promote forward-looking policies. A candidate championing Bitcoin rights can position themselves as pro-innovation and pro-growth, appealing to younger and tech-savvy voters.

Bitcoin is often seen as a symbol of financial sovereignty and resistance to centralization, tapping into broader cultural and political themes of freedom and self-determination, which resonate deeply with many voters.

Politicians who take early and decisive action on Bitcoin rights will benefit from being seen as leaders in a growing, transformative movement, potentially winning the loyalty of voters looking for bold, visionary leadership.

Bitcoin Rights passing in the House gives both Democrats and Republicans a chance to demonstrate leadership on this key new issue. It’s a Democrat-controlled house, yet the bill was sponsored by Republican @RepCabell.

@RepCabell The Bitcoin voter bloc is looking for a home, and both sides have a chance to demonstrate how they will govern. Both sides support the right to self-determination, which this bill would enshrine into law.

@RepCabell With 12 days left until the most important Bitcoin election of our lifetime, now is the chance for both @realDonaldTrump and @KamalaHarris to apply pressure within their parties to ensure this bill makes it across the finish line.

Pennsylvania can be decided by a very small fraction of the electorate. There is no better time to demonstrate leadership on Bitcoin. Demonstrating leadership here can garner valuable votes that could make the difference on Nov 5th and determine who sits in the Oval Office in 2025.
