United States House Financial Services Committee chair Patrick McHenry has pointed a finger at the Biden administration for the lack of bipartisan agreement on a stablecoin bill.<\/p>\n

In a July 27 hearing, Rep. McHenry said the version of the Clarity for Payment Stablecoins Act, H.R. 4766, being considered for markup was not based on negotiations between himself and ranking member Maxine Waters. He added that though the committee was \u201ccloser than [they]\u2019ve ever been\u201d on a bipartisan solution, the White House did not \u201cshare that same sense of urgency\u201d as lawmakers.<\/p>\n

\u201cA few small, but nonetheless important, provisions stood between us and a deal,\u201d said Rep. McHenry. \u201cIt was the White House\u2019s unwillingness to compromise that has once again brought that negotiation to a halt.\u201d<\/p>\n
