Senator Cynthia Lummis has publicly called for Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell to resign, citing his repeated failures and unfitness to lead the Fed. Lummis accuses Powell of crippling America's competitive edge and failing the American people. She specifically blames him for allowing Operation Chokepoint 2.0 to occur under his watch, which she claims has severely damaged the digital asset industry and set back American innovation by decades. Lummis also criticized Powell for blocking Bitcoin and cryptocurrency banking, urging for new leadership at the Federal Reserve to restore competitiveness and innovation.
