๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ ๐Ÿšจ DRAMA ALERT: CRYPTO BILLS CONTINUE TO FACE DELAYS DESPITE PRESIDENT TRUMP'S SUPPORT

๐ŸŒŸ Three crypto bills passed the initial procedural vote with a final tally of 217โ€“215. Many expected the second procedural vote to pass easily as itโ€™s a routine step, but it was unexpectedly stalled due to internal conflicts within the Republican Party.

๐ŸŒŸ Some Republican lawmakers who voted "NO" yesterday switched to "YES" today after meeting with President Trump, on the condition that anti-CBDC provisions be added to the CLARITY Act (infrastructure bill), as the GENIUS Act (stablecoin bill) cannot be amended.

๐ŸŒŸ However, the authors of the CLARITY Act oppose this change, fearing it could jeopardize the bipartisan support they spent months building.

๐ŸŒŸ In the second procedural vote, 9 Republicans voted "NO," 3 did not vote, and all 212 Democrats voted against it. They demanded the inclusion of the anti-CBDC bill, arguing that President Trump failed to honor his commitment.

๐ŸŒŸ House Speaker Mike Johnson led negotiations for hours, but the vote remained unresolved by evening.

๐ŸŒŸ Majority Whip Tom Emmer announced there would be no further votes today. The House has adjourned without a final decision. It remains unclear whether the vote will resume tomorrow or face further delays.

๐ŸŒŸ Despite the delays, the bills could still pass later, or the GENIUS Act (stablecoin bill) may be separated and passed first, while the other two bills may require more time.
