Transactional gold and silver is an idea Kevin Freeman has worked on for decades. In August 2023 he released the book, "Pirate Money," which outlines how states can make gold and silver functional money. Now more than 20 states have begun crafting legislation to make Article 1, Section 10 gold- and silver-based legal tender a reality in their states. One state that is pushing full steam ahead is Utah. HB 348 has been introduced by state Rep. Ken Ivory (R) and is gaining significant support. Today in the Economic War Room, Kevin talks with Rep. Ivory along with Utah Treasurer Marlo Oaks about the specifics of the legislation and their efforts to be first in the nation to offer a Constitutional state-based gold- and silver-backed currency.
