Instead, Congresswoman Waters and Committee Democrats will walk out and convene a separate Democratic hearing to investigate Trump’s ties to crypto and blatant abuses of power. This decision comes after Chairman French Hill (R-AK) refused Waters’ request to include provisions in legislation blocking Trump’s ability to further enrich himself from crypto. ___________________________________ Hearing page: https://democrats-financialservices.house.gov/events/eventsingle.aspx?EventID=413084
