The Republican-sponsored GENIUS Act, establishing federal oversight for stablecoins, cleared a critical Senate hurdle with a 66-32 cloture vote. This marks a reversal from the bill’s previous 48-49 defeat earlier this month.

Negotiated revisions now mandate unanimous approval by a Stablecoin Certification Review Committee for foreign issuers not primarily engaged in financial services. The updated draft also strengthens data-sharing provisions, signaling lawmakers’ focus on cross-border compliance and transparency.
