Subsection (c)(4). The report includes the text of the waiver or license and the facts and circumstances justifying the determination, may include a classified annex, and is accompanied by a briefing. Subsection (d) adds that nothing in the Act alters the Secretary's existing authority to block, restrict or limit transactions involving dollar-denominated payment stablecoins subject to United States jurisdiction.

“Not later than 7 days after issuing a waiver or a license under paragraph (1), (2), or (3), the Secretary of the Treasury shall submit to the chairs and ranking members of the Committee on Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs of the Senate and the Committee on Financial Services of the House of Representatives, a report”

That sentence, in plain words

The Treasury has seven days after it grants a pass. It must send a report to two groups in Congress. It goes to their leaders on both sides.

What this is about

The report holds the text of the pass. It also gives the facts behind it. Part of it may be secret. The Treasury must brief them too.

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, checked against 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.
