Democratic Senators Want A Say on Crypto Market Structure Legislation |
Senators Ruben Gallego (AZ), Mark Warner (VA), Kirsten Gillibrand (NY), Cory Booker (NJ), Catherine Cortez Masto (NV), Ben Ray Luján (NM), John Hickenlooper (CO), Raphael Warnock (GA), Adam Schiff (CA), Andy Kim (NJ), Lisa Blunt Rochester (DE), and Angela Alsobrooks (MD) released the following statement:
“Last week, we released a framework on market structure legislation, highlighting our desire to work on this issue. As we stated then, digital assets are a $4 trillion global market that will require a considered and bipartisan approach to regulation. We hope our Republican colleagues will agree to a bipartisan authorship process, as is the norm for legislation of this scale. Given our shared interest in moving forward quickly on this issue, we hope they will agree to reasonable requests to allow for true collaboration. For this process to work, it must start from a place of mutual understanding. We look forward to engaging with our Republican counterparts in such a manner.”
