Oklahoma senator introduces Bitcoin Freedom Act for BTC payments
“If Washington D.C. can ruin something, it likely will. And it is certainly ruining the US Dollar,” said Senator Deevers after introducing the bill.
Republican senator for Oklahoma, Dusty Deevers, has filed legislation that would allow employees and residents in the state to opt to receive payment and salaries in Bitcoin (BTC) and enable vendors to accept BTC payments.
“In a time when inflation is eroding the purchasing power of hard-working Oklahomans, Bitcoin provides a unique opportunity to protect earnings and investments,” said Deevers after introducing the Bitcoin Freedom Act on Jan. 8.
“As Bitcoin continues to rise and the value of the dollar continues to be printed away in Washington D.C., Oklahoma must act to protect our people,” he added.
