Steve Scalise is a strong advocate for sensible crypto regulation. His retweet of David Sacks, celebrating the White House's report on digital assets and the potential for the U.S. to become a global crypto leader, reinforces his pro-crypto stance. Scalise emphasizes the importance of the CLARITY Act, which has already passed in the House. This bill aims to provide regulatory clarity for digital assets, offering certainty for market participants and fostering U.S. innovation in the crypto space. He urges the Senate to pass this crucial legislation and confirm the nominees who will implement what he calls "Trump's crypto agenda." This full-throated endorsement of crypto, coupled with his active support for legislation like the CLARITY Act, demonstrates his commitment to fostering a positive regulatory environment for crypto in the United States. This tweet, from July 2025, earned a well-deserved 100 stance score.

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.

Republicans have worked in good faith with RM Waters for more than 14 months on stablecoin legislation. Nothing is being rushed. Unfortunately, Democrats would rather obstruct the Committee than participate in a real debate.
