Who?

Rep. Ritchie Torres (D-NY) — House Financial Services Committee

LISTEN: Laslo & Torres

Ask a Pol asks:

What do you think about the new House effort to combine market structure and stablecoin measures into one behmoath bill?

Key Torres:

“I’d prefer to do one at a time,” Rep. Ritchie Torres exclusively tells Ask a Pol. “Both bills are complicated but market structure even more. Allowing a simpler piece of legislation to be held hostage by a more complicated piece of legislation strikes me as unwise.”

Anything you all learned from passing stablecoin out of the Senate when it comes to the next heavy lift for this Congress, ie establishing market structure for digital assets?

Key Hagerty:

“Yeah, I think the momentum that we're going to build here is going to be widely felt across the industry and frankly, across the economy,” Sen. Bill Hagerty exclusively told Ask a Pol. “We've had an opportunity to condition my colleagues here in the Senate as to the importance of moving on to the 21st century payment system but also to expand their thoughts about the entirety of market structure.”
