The Banque Committee of the US Senate has advanced the bill on the stablescoin regulation of the crypto industry, a major first step towards the effort at the office of President Donald Trump to be promulgated.
With its first approval from the committee, the bill that would regulate American stablecoin issuers at the federal level now needs adoption by the Global Senate, and a similar version also awaits the approval of the House of Representatives. While a certain number of obstacles remain, including a possible merger of the various bills of each Chamber, the Committee advanced the bill with a vote of 18-6.
Many Democrats of the Committee have recognized the need for the bill while seeking to add a certain number of amendments to add additional controls and regulatory limits, each was shot dead with partisan votes.
Senator Elizabeth Warren, the Panel classification democrat, led the objections of her colleagues against certain provisions of the bill, which, according to her, marks “a clear threat to our national security” in her current form. Warren became more and more frustrated during the 2.5 hour hearing, because each of his amendments proposed to the bill was rejected.
“It would be crazy to advance this bill when there are so many holes that have been underlined, and to advance it at the exact moment that the news breaks about Donald Trump trying to create his own stablecoin with an outfit that is known to break the law,” said Warren to the end of the hearing, referring to the reference that the world’s financial world had been in discussions Binance. “Blocking yourself while Donald Trump is in the process of entering an agreement with a stablecoin criminal platform makes no sense. We will regret that.
Another Democrat, Catherine Cortez Masto of Nevada, complained that the Committee Republicans exploded a debate during the increase – a type of audience intended to consider and discuss changes to moving legislation – and a number of them were not presented at the hearing.
“This is an excellent start, but it is not ready for prime hours,” said the senator about the Bill Bill focused on Republicans.
“The increases are messy,” said Panel president Tim Scott, a South Carolina Republican in response. “We worked for nights, days, weekends to get there.”
The Senate Bill Hagerty, the republican of Tennessee, who was the main author of the legislation, called the Act respecting the National Innovation Act and the establishment of national innovation (Genius Act) a “truly bipartite effort” which had taken the democratic contribution. The Kirsten Gillibrand Democrats from New York and Angela Alsobrooks from Maryland? Costidé the bill, alongside a number of republican colleagues from Hagerty.
“It presents common sense rules that protect consumers, promote competition and promote innovation,” said Hagerty. “It is time that we provide the clarity and stability that our country and its innovators so desperately need.”
The cryptographic industry is counting on an increasingly strong majority of the legislators of the two chambers to support its political efforts this year. Until now, this month, a separate effort to remove an internal rule of income from the income opposed by the cryptography sector has won large Bipartisian votes.

It was the Senatoric Banking Committee of the Major Democrat at the previous congress which retained the cryptographic legislation that had advanced in the Chamber led by Les Républicains. The 2024 elections were charged with the two chambers, and Scott made Stablecoin legislation one of its main opening priorities.
