Who is Harriet Hageman? The Republican Congresswoman Eyeing Cynthia Lummis’ Senate Seat
Republican Senator Cynthia Lummis of Wyoming, a prominent crypto advocate, will not seek reelection in 2026, creating a policy void for the digital asset sector in the Senate. Her departure may impact crypto legislation, as she co-sponsored key bills on regulation, self-custody rights, and stablecoins. Harriet Hageman, Wyoming’s Republican House Representative, is reportedly considering a run for the seat. While not as vocal as Lummis on crypto, Hageman has a pro-crypto voting record, supporting bills like FIT21 and opposing a retail CBDC. Her potential election could maintain Wyoming’s support for crypto, though her advocacy style may differ.
