Vote No. 228 (H.R. 4763)

Motion by Ms. Leger Fernández to amend the rule to make in order amendments #13, #14, and #15 to H.R. 4763, each offered by Representative Casten. Amendment #13 places a two-year moratorium to prohibit financial institutions from transacting with incoming funds that have been routed through digital asset mixers and outgoing funds routed directly to digital asset mixers and directs the Treasury Department to conduct a study on the illicit uses of digital asset mixers, privacy coins, and other anonymity enhancing technologies; amendment #14 directs the Treasury Department to conduct a study on the illicit uses of digital asset mixers, privacy coins, and other anonymity-enhancing technologies; and amendment #15 strikes Title II, which would create new opportunities for issuers, including non-crypto firms, to escape SEC registration requirements.
