Washington, D.C. - The Retail Industry Leaders Association (RILA) issued the following statement encouraging Senators to support the bipartisan stablecoin legislation.

"The Guiding and Establishing National Innovation for U.S. Stablecoins (GENIUS) Act is the type of policy proposal that could lead to frictionless payments and help millions of Americans gain greater access to the financial system," said Austen Jensen, RILA's executive vice president of government affairs. "The GENIUS Act lays out the proper guardrails for more innovation and competition in the payments arena. RILA encourages Senators to support this bipartisan legislation."
