Kentucky is (purportedly) home to a large portion of U.S. gold holdings, yet the state does not own a single ounce of gold. Thanks to @realTJRoberts for introducing this measure to follow Wyoming, Utah, and others that have established state gold reserves! @SoundMoneyDef

Our '25 Sound Money Legislator of the Year @realTJRoberts spoke in favor of establishing a gold reserve for KY after passing a bill earlier this year to end the sales tax on purchases of precious metals. Central bankers around the world are stockpiling gold, why shouldn't KY?

This bill will also require disclosure of all transactions involving America’s gold, including purchases, sales, loans, pledges, leases, swaps, and other encumbrances, dating back 50 years. Such activities have never been publicly disclosed. | @JpCortez27

Thanks to @BreitbartNews for covering @SenMikeLee's Gold Reserve Transparency Act, and for sound money leaders like @judyshel, @RonPaul, @moneymetals, and @Gold_AntiTrust for speaking in support of the measure!
Important article just out from @BreitbartNews about legislation from @BasedMikeLee for Gold Reserve Transparency Act to audit U.S. Treasury gold holdings. That’s a necessary step for issuing Gold-backed Treasury Bonds to assure investors.
