“We urge the Senate to continue working in good faith to resolve outstanding differences and advance the bipartisan GENIUS Act. U.S. leadership in the digital economy depends on establishing a clear and consistent regulatory framework for stablecoins that fosters innovation, empowers entrepreneurs, and helps build the next generation of financial technologies.
