Very Pro-Crypto

Voted for a bill on 2025-07-17
Bill Name
GENIUS Act

Details
The GENIUS Act of 2025 proposes a regulatory framework for payment stablecoins. It defines permitted issuers (insured depository institutions, their subsidiaries, and approved nonbank entities) and mandates 1:1 reserve backing with specific high-quality assets. The bill outlines federal and state regulatory oversight options, sets requirements for customer asset segregation, and grants stablecoin holders priority in insolvency proceedings. It also clarifies that regulated payment stablecoins are not considered securities or commodities under various acts. The bill designates issuers as financial institutions under the Bank Secrecy Act, requiring compliance with AML, KYC, and sanctions regulations to prevent illicit finance and safeguard national security. It also reinforces U.S. leadership in digital finance by supporting innovation and ensuring the dollar remains competitive in a rapidly evolving global financial landscape.

My constituents want to use payment stablecoins, as do our allies in developing nations on the continent of Africa & around the world. We must establish clear, high regulatory standards for stablecoin issuers. Certainty is key for companies which is why I support the STABLE Act.

From reaching America’s unbanked to securely delivering humanitarian aid abroad, the potential digital assets present are great. Today’s @FSCDems hearing on stablecoins was critical to understanding how lawmakers can best protect the public while enabling responsible innovation.

The future of innovation in the financial markets is inevitable. The use of digital assets can help underserved communities access additional financial tools - but we must make sure there is global coordination around regulation.
