House Republican leaders have designated 14-18 July as “Crypto Week,” scheduling floor votes on three high-profile digital-asset bills
House Republican leaders have designated 14-18 July as “Crypto Week,” scheduling floor votes on three high-profile digital-asset bills. The announcement came from Financial Services Committee Chair French Hill and Agriculture Committee Chair GT Thompson, with backing from Speaker Mike Johnson.
Lawmakers will take up the CLARITY Act, which divides oversight of digital assets between the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission; the Anti-CBDC Surveillance State Act, which would permanently bar the Federal Reserve from issuing a central-bank digital currency; and the Senate-passed GENIUS Act, establishing federal rules for dollar-backed stablecoins.
Hill said the package would give U.S. innovators “the clarity they need to build here at home,” while Johnson framed the week as a step toward fulfilling President Donald Trump’s goal of making the United States “the crypto capital of the world.”
The CLARITY Act advanced in June with bipartisan committee votes of 32-19 in Financial Services and 47-6 in Agriculture, and the Anti-CBDC bill cleared committee in April by 27-22. If the House passes the GENIUS Act next week, it would go directly to the president’s desk, while the other two measures would move to the Senate for further action.
