During this month's briefing, our speakers will discuss why cash remains essential to financial freedom, recent legislative successes, and practical strategies for protecting cash through state policy.

Susan Luschas – Building a Grassroots Cash Movement

Susan Luschas, founder of Team Cash, will share how a grassroots movement can help strengthen public awareness and encourage the continued use of cash. She will discuss Team Cash's efforts to promote the use of cash, South Dakota's successful legislation ensuring that school sporting events accept cash, and the lessons learned from that legislative campaign. Susan will also share practical ideas for how individuals can help preserve cash in their own communities.

Representative Heather Scott – A Legislative Success Story

Idaho Representative Heather Scott will discuss the legislation she championed requiring state agencies, including state-funded universities, to accept cash. She will explain how the bill came together, the challenges encountered along the way, and what other states can learn from Idaho's success.

Audience Q&A

We'll conclude with audience questions and discussion. Whether you're a legislator, policy advocate, business owner, or concerned citizen, this is an opportunity to hear directly from leaders working to preserve Americans' ability to use cash and to ask questions about how these efforts can be replicated in your own state.

We hope you'll join us for this important conversation.

Speaking of cash, a Solari team member recently had a fun experience while traveling home from Florida. They stopped at a local restaurant and noticed a large "Cash Is King" sign displayed near the register explaining the benefits of accepting cash. If you own a business, or know someone who does, a sign like this might be a simple way to start conversations about the value of cash while encouraging customers to pay with it. You can purchase the sign here:

We're also pleased to remind everyone that the replay of our last briefing is now available to watch. During this interactive session, participants explored four possible futures for programmable money and considered what legislative guardrails may be needed to protect consumer rights and financial freedom as digital payment technologies continue to evolve.

The replay, along with the presentation slides, is available for anyone who was unable to attend live or would like to revisit the discussion:

We look forward to seeing you on Thursday for what promises to be an informative discussion on one of the most important financial freedom issues facing the states today.

In freedom,

The Solari Team
