What the document says

“Consistent with section 13, the primary Federal payment stablecoin regulators shall, and State payment stablecoin regulators may, issue such regulations relating to permitted payment stablecoin issuers as may be necessary to establish a payment stablecoin regulatory framework necessary to administer and carry out the requirements of this section, including to establish conditions, and to prevent evasion thereof.”

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

Subsection (h). The Federal regulators must issue the regulations and the State regulators may. Under paragraph (2), all regulations issued to carry out the section are to be issued in coordination by the primary Federal payment stablecoin regulators, if they are not issued by a State payment stablecoin regulator. Section 13 sets the one year deadline.

What the document actually says

“Consistent with section 13, the primary Federal payment stablecoin regulators shall, and State payment stablecoin regulators may, issue such regulations relating to permitted payment stablecoin issuers as may be necessary to establish a payment stablecoin regulatory framework necessary to administer and carry out the requirements of this section, including to establish conditions, and to prevent evasion thereof.”

That sentence, in plain words

The federal watchdogs must write rules for this part. State watchdogs are allowed to write their own. The rules may set terms and close gaps.

What this is about

Part 13 gives them one year from the day the law passed. The federal bodies must work as a group. A state rule stands on its own.

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.
