As Trump calls for Rapid Stablecoin Bill Passage, major lawmakers indicate more communication
President Donald Trump called for a quick passage of the StableCoin-Oversight Bill’s House of Representatives recently approved by the US Senate, but one of the major lawmakers in that effort suggested on Monday With details still need to work.
Representative French Hill, chairman of the House Financial Services Committee who acted as the main stage of Stablecoin’s debate for many years in Congress, did not want to make the President’s request that House lawmakers prevent their pencils from Senate’s work. Instead, he said that the conversations were conducted on the leadership and there were a number of issues that could be refined between the Senate’s approved bill And the version of the house is still in the process.
Trump was clear in his preference last week:
“The house expects to move lightning quickly, and pass a ‘clean’ gear gesture,” he Posted on his social-media siteSocial facts. “Take it to my desk, ASAP – no delays, no add to those.”
But in comments at the Brookings Institution in Washington, Hill said the two rooms would find a way to get both the Stablecoin Bill and the more important law that describes the structure of US crypto markets at the President’s desk by the end of August set by Trump. In the face of repeated questions about what he was planning to do or if he was open to Trump’s request to sign off the Senate bill, Hill refused to reveal his purpose.
“My tomorrow is listening to my colleagues,” he said. Hill said he spent last week “taking our members’ temperature at home about what their preferred techniques were for hitting President Trump’s deadline, along with the house leadership. So just the discussion continues.”
However, when he talked about the differences between the Senate’s Guide and Establishment of the National Change for the US Stablecoins (Genius) Act, which drew a massive 68-30 vote last week, and the house Stablecoin Transparency and Accountability for a Better Ledger Economy (Stable) ActHill outlined a number of key areas of difference.
“There are some differences – some gentle, some material,” he said. They include the concepts of bills in so -called extraterritoriality, or the US ability to expand its legal implementation outside its boundaries; on the duties of states and federal administration agencies; and the subject of separation of banking and commerce raised by potentially allowing corporations to issue stablecoins.
“The bottom line is the Senate and the Chamber can find a commonly constructive area,” he said. But finding a common basis means making changes to the Genius Act against what Trump wants.
“There’s a border time that people can spend on an issue,” says Rashan ColbertThe policy director for the Crypto Council for Innovation, in an interview with CoinDesk. “Crypto spends a lot of time, a lot of energy in thinking for lawmakers, and thus there is still some work to do to determine if the bills will be included in a process, or if they are separated.”
There are three main options before the house: pass a genius as-ay and send it for Trump’s signature; Mix it with a steady action and send the stablecoin language a compromise back to the Senate; Or to combine the genius firmly and dispose of it with the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act which is the broader market structure bill. That latter option was openly discussed by home -working lawmakers, although some in the crypto industry are afraid that a single, complex bill may be more difficult for Congress to swallow.
