Publication of Global Magnitsky Sanctions Regulations Web General License 8

Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 187 / Thursday, September 26, 2024 / Rules and Regulations 78815 only betrays the American public’s expectation of Washington to create and maintain fair markets, but it also undermines financial inclusion. The government must keep the people’s trust that we will help every American achieve economic mobility for them and their families—not construct artificial barriers to the American Dream. For those reasons, I applaud the Commission taking the time for careful consideration of the public comments and further study including data. I thank Chairman Behnam and the Market Participants Division for working with me on this important rulemaking.
