Sen. Lummis’ Crypto Crusade: April Markup or Eternal Delay?

Senator Lummis, with the fervor of a prophetess, assured attendees that the committee would approve the crypto market structure bill and that the full Senate could pass the legislation by year’s end. “We’re going to have this thing done, come hell or high water by the end of the year,” she declared, as if the very notion of delay were a personal insult. A Banking GOP markup, she added, would likely occur in the second half of April, post-Easter recess-a time when even the most ardent legislators might be tempted to indulge in a spot of chocolate and existential dread.
