🚨 Georgia bankers: Urgent action needed!

After months of negotiations on digital asset legislation, the Senate Banking Committee is expected to mark up the Clarity Act this week. While the latest version is improved, it still contains a stablecoin loophole that could allow crypto companies and other non-bank entities to offer interest-like rewards on payment stablecoins.

Without additional changes, the bill could incentivize deposits to move out of banks and into stablecoins — weakening the funding base banks rely on to support consumers, small businesses and local economies.

As Georgia bankers head to Washington this week, constituent outreach is critical. Once the bill advances from committee, changes become much harder to achieve.

We encourage Georgia bankers to contact Sens. Jon Ossoff and Raphael Warnock and urge them to close the loophole by extending the prohibition on paying interest, yield or rewards on payment stablecoins to all market participants.



Congress has an opportunity to close the loopholes left open in the GENIUS Act.
