In a joint statement released on May 3, the Senators noted that there are several issues with the current version of the stablecoin legislation known as the American Stablecoin Innovation and Regulatory Act (GENIUS). The Senators stated:

"While we are very eager to continue working with our colleagues to resolve these issues, we will not be able to vote to move forward if the current version of the legislation is brought up for discussion."

This statement was signed by Senators Raphael Warnock, Catherine Cortez Masto, Ben Ray Luján, John Hickenlooper, and Adam Schiff. Surprisingly, Senators Ruben Gallego, Mark Warner, Lisa Blunt Rochester, and Andy Kim, who all supported the legislation when it was approved in the Senate Banking Committee in March, are also among the signatories.

However, it is worth noting that two Democratic Senators who are co-sponsors of the GENIUS Act along with the primary sponsor, Republican Senator Bill Hagerty — Kirsten Gillibrand and Angela Alsobrooks — did not sign the statement.
