Bull Moose Project criticizes Sen. Lummis over stalled crypto legislation
The Bull Moose Project, a conservative advocacy group, has criticized Senator Cynthia Lummis (R-WY) for delaying progress on important cryptocurrency legislation.Specifically, the group accuses Lummis of stalling the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act of 2025, which had passed the House with bipartisan support and was backed by the White House. According to the Bull Moose project, Lummis shifted her focus to another proposal, the Responsible Financial Innovation Act, causing both bills to stall. The group released a football-themed AI video and statement accusing Lummis of “fumbling the ball,” suggesting her actions have surprised policymakers, unsettled crypto investors, and risk derailing legislation that aims to establish clearer rules and stronger consumer protections for the digital asset market. The group urges Lummis to support the Clarity Act promptly, warning that her current approach is a liability to Wyoming and America.
Bull Moose Project criticizes Sen. Lummis over stalled crypto legislation
(The Center Square) – A conservative advocacy group is pressuring Sen. Cynthia Lummis (R-WY) over her handling of a major digital asset bill, arguing that she slowed progress on a measure backed by the White House and a bipartisan group of lawmakers.
The Bull Moose Project released a football-themed AI video and statement criticizing Lummis, a Wyoming Republican who has positioned herself as a leader on cryptocurrency issues. The group said she “fumbled” the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act of 2025, a bill that passed the U.S. House earlier this year with bipartisan support.
Lummis shifted her focus to the Responsible Financial Innovation Act, a separate proposal that has not advanced, according to a Bull Moose Project press release. The group argues that the move stalled both measures.
“The White House was clear that it wanted digital asset market legislation passed and on the President’s desk before Thanksgiving. The House did its job, and the Senate was ready to pass it until Senator Lummis called an audible and fumbled the ball,” Aiden Buzzetti, founder of the Bull Moose Project, said in the release.
The organization said the CLARITY Act would establish clearer rules for the digital asset market, including definitions for digital commodities, regulatory roles, and operational requirements for companies. Its supporters have described it as a way to provide stronger consumer protections and more certainty for investors.
President Trump “declared digital asset market structure legislation a priority months ago,” the group said. The release warned that “thanks to Sen. Lummis’ poor play calling, that’s all at risk.”
Lummis’ office did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
The video, released alongside the statement, uses football analogies to criticize Lummis’ role in the process.
“President Trump called the play. The industry set the formation. The House put it in motion. But Senator Cynthia Lummis fumbled the ball,” the narration said. It adds that her decision “surpris[ed] policymakers and spook[ed] crypto investors.”

The video also states that “when it comes to legislating on President Trump’s biggest priorities, Senator Lummis is a liability and should be benched,” and urges viewers to “tell Senator Lummis to get on the right play for Wyoming and America. Pass the Clarity Act now.”
The ad will run on social media during major college football games, the group says.
