As Congress stumbles toward a government shutdown, Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand (D-N.Y.) is still rallying colleagues in the Senate to take up crypto regulation.
Gillibrand's Senate Agriculture Committee came close to advancing a digital assets-focused bill last year, but the collapse of the infamous FTX exchange led many Democrats in both the House and Senate to slow down the legislative process. Gillibrand remains one of the few Democrats in Congress calling for new crypto regulation, and worked with her Senate GOP colleague Sen. Cynthia Lummis (R-Wy) to unveil a revamped digital assets bill in July.
