TREE NEWS update: US House Republican Whip Tom Emmer said at the Solana Institute summit that he is concerned about changes to the Blockchain Regulatory Certainty Act, warning that dropping a criminal-liability safe harbor would let local prosecutors weaponize the law. Emmer, who first introduced the BRCA in the House in 2018, made the remarks to Kristin Smith.

Emmer's warning reframes the BRCA debate: the safe harbor isn't just a compliance convenience, it's the provision that keeps developers from facing patchwork local prosecution. That matters most for open-source and infrastructure teams, who are the ones exposed if the shield is narrowed. The open question is whether the safe harbor survives as the bill moves, since the same provision that draws industry support is also the easiest target for critics.
