With its first committee approval, the bill that would regulate U.S. stablecoin issuers at the federal level now needs passage by the overall Senate, and a similar version also awaits approval in the House of Representatives. While a number of hurdles remain, including an eventual melding of the different bills from each chamber, the committee advanced the bill with a 18-6 vote.
Work is also underway in the House to regulate stablecoins. Though the GENIUS Act is not a companion to the House's version, lawmakers say it shows an effort among Republicans to work on key issues.
