The Pennsylvania House of Representatives passed a bill protecting residents' rights to use and store cryptocurrency on October 22, 2024. The Digital Assets Authorization Act secured an overwhelming majority of 176-26 votes, backed by all 100 Republican members and 76 Democrats, according to the official Pennsylvania General Assembly voting record.
The strong bipartisan support for the bill reflects a broader trend in U.S. politics, where cryptocurrency regulation represents a rare unifying issue. Among crypto owners, 35% identify as Democrats, 33% as Republicans and 32% as independents or other according to a Grayscale report.
However, the House's voting pattern shows that some resistance remains among Democrats, with 26 voting against the bill while Republicans showed unanimous support.
