The profile

Standing Senate committee whose jurisdiction under Rule XXV of the Standing Rules covers banks and banking, deposit insurance, money and credit including currency and coinage, and federal monetary policy including the Federal Reserve System, with 13 majority and 11 minority seats, chaired by Tim Scott of South Carolina with Elizabeth Warren as ranking member. It is the Senate gate for digital-asset legislation: it published its account of the Digital Asset Market CLARITY Act on 13 January 2026 and voted 15-9 on 14 May 2026 to send the bill to the Senate floor, two Democrats joining the majority. The bill would set the boundary between SEC and CFTC jurisdiction in statute rather than through enforcement, and bank trade associations used the markup to press for tighter limits on interest-like rewards paid to stablecoin holders.
