Kean’s Capitol absence sparks a day of crypto ethics wrangling and GOP drama

Rep. Tom Kean Jr. remains off the Hill due to a personal medical issue and has not voted since March, as a broad Capitol Hill agenda unfolds with Democrats pressing to attach ethics language to a major cryptocurrency bill amid GOP pushback; the day also covers debates over a $1 billion Secret Service funding tied to Trump’s ballroom project, Warsh’s Fed Board confirmation, Luna’s possible bid for RNC chair, and backlash against Rep. Jen Kiggans for a racist remark—reflecting a busy, fractious political landscape.
