This week, Catherine is testifying in the Tennessee Senate and House on two bills pertaining to cash and programmable money (see testimony below).

• SB0739 would require businesses, with certain reasonable exemptions, to accept cash.
• HB2039, based on Solari’s model legislation addressing programmable money, would protect the right of Tennesseans to transact freely without being forced into using programmable digital payment systems.
