The House late Wednesday approved the rules of debate for a trio of high-stakes crypto regulation bills, overcoming internal Republican opposition that had threatened to derail the legislation entirely, according to CNBC. Conservative and moderate GOP lawmakers clashed over last-minute changes, and it took hours of closed-door negotiations and direct intervention from Donald Trump to flip enough “no” votes. The final green light came after a record-breaking 10-hour vote, clearing the way for debate on the GENIUS Act, CLARITY Act, and a bill blocking the creation of a central bank digital currency. The infighting raised fresh doubts about whether House Republicans can ultimately unify to send final versions to the president’s desk.
