Tim Scott, the committee chair, framed the issue in direct terms. “For years, the digital frontier was trapped in a regulatory gray zone,” he said during the hearing. “Developers, entrepreneurs and investors were left with uncertainty.

Banks argue the measure could let stablecoin issuers offer interest-like rewards that pull deposits out of the banking system and reduce the pool of money available for loans. Law enforcement groups say the bill still does too little to stop illicit transfers. Labor groups, including the \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Faflcio.org\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">AFL-CIO\u003C\u002Fa>, warned that looser crypto rules could put retirement and pension assets at risk.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>That mix of objections is why the vote is only a hurdle, not a finish line. The Senate still has to pass the bill, the House has to approve the same text, and the two chambers would then need to reconcile their versions before anything reaches President Donald Trump.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>There is also a political wrinkle the bill cannot avoid. Lawmakers spent part of the hearing talking about ethics language tied to elected officials profiting from crypto, including Trump, whose family has made money from meme coins and the World Liberty Financial venture.
