The task force's stated priorities are drawing clear regulatory lines, providing realistic paths to registration, crafting sensible disclosure frameworks, and deploying enforcement resources judiciously. Richard Gabbert was named Chief of Staff and Taylor Asher Chief Policy Advisor. The task force was directed to coordinate with Congress, other federal agencies including the CFTC, and state and international counterparts, marking a sharp shift from the enforcement posture of the prior administration under Chair Gary Gensler.
