To provide for the regulation of payment stablecoins, and for other purposes, Sec. 4

Subsection (a)(3)(A). The examination is monthly and is performed by a registered public accounting firm, a term section 2(26) takes from section 2 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (15 U.S.C. 7201). The cross reference in the sentence is to paragraph (1)(D); paragraph (1) as enacted ends at subparagraph (C).

To provide for the regulation of payment stablecoins, and for other purposes, Sec. 4
That sentence, in plain words

Each month an outside firm checks the maker's report. The firm must be one that is on a public register.

What this is about

The check is on the numbers the maker put out the month before. The law points to a part of itself that is not there. The site records the words as printed.

No action is recorded against this proposal. That is not evidence that none has been taken, and nobody has yet read it against the record. See what the tracker does not yet cover.

How to Read This Page

The quotation is the document's own words, exactly as printed, and we check the page number against the Act itself before publishing. The paragraph underneath is our summary, not the document's words. So is the plain English version, which is why it sits beside the quotation rather than replacing it.
