BREAKING: GENIUS Act passes House, Tim Scott hails stablecoin bill as milestone

1 min read

Tim Scott praised the House of Representatives for passing the bipartisan Guiding and Establishing National Innovation for U.S. Stablecoins Act, marking a major step forward in U.S. digital asset regulation.

In a July 17 statement, Senate Banking Committee Chairman Tim Scott (R-S.C.) called the legislation which was just passed “a major milestone in securing America’s leadership in payments innovation,” and emphasized its alignment with former President Donald Trump’s agenda to establish the U.S. as “the crypto capital of the world.”

The GENIUS Act, which Scott co-sponsored and shepherded through the Senate, establishes a comprehensive regulatory framework for payment stablecoins. It passed the Senate Banking Committee in March with unanimous Republican support and backing from five Democrats. The bill is led by Senator Bill Hagerty (R-Tenn.) and co-sponsored by Senators Kirsten Gillibrand (D-N.Y.), Cynthia Lummis (R-Wyo.), and Angela Alsobrooks (D-Md.).

The legislation has received support from a wide range of industry stakeholders and underwent consideration of nearly 40 amendments before advancing. Scott also highlighted the work of the newly created Senate Subcommittee on Digital Assets, led by Lummis, in shaping the bill.

(Photo by Paul Natkin/Getty Images) Getty Images Singer Lou Gramm has a vivid memory of recording the ballad “Waiting for a Girl Like You” at New York City’s Electric Lady Studio for his band Foreigner more than 40 years ago. Gramm was adding his vocals for the track in the control room on the other side of the glass when he noticed a beautiful woman walking through the door. “She sits on the sofa in front of the board,” he says. “She looked at me while I was singing. And every now and then, she had a little smile on her face. I’m not sure what that was, but it was driving me crazy. “And at the end of the song, when I’m singing the ad-libs and stuff like that, she gets up,” he continues. “She gives me a little smile and walks out of the room. And when the song ended, I would look up every now and then to see where Mick [Jones] and Mutt [Lange] were, and they were pushing buttons and turning knobs. They were not aware that she was even in the room. So when the song ended, I said, ‘Guys, who was that woman who walked in? She was beautiful.’ And they looked at each other, and they went, ‘What are you talking about? We didn’t see anything.’ But you know what? I think they put her up to it. Doesn’t that sound more like them?” “Waiting for a Girl Like You” became a massive hit in 1981 for Foreigner off their album 4, which peaked at number one on the Billboard chart for 10 weeks and…
