House Republican leaders have designated 14-18 July as \u201cCrypto Week,\u201d 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.<\/p>\n
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.<\/p>\n
Hill said the package would give U.S. innovators \u201cthe clarity they need to build here at home,\u201d while Johnson framed the week as a step toward fulfilling President Donald Trump\u2019s goal of making the United States \u201cthe crypto capital of the world.\u201d<\/p>\n
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\u2019s desk, while the other two measures would move to the Senate for further action.<\/p>\n
