CoinVoice recently learned that on September 8, according to Cointelegraph, according to a statement, the U.S. House of Representatives Financial Services Digital Assets, Financial Technology, and Inclusion Subcommittee will hold a "Digital Dollar Dilemma" hearing on September 14 to discuss the issuance of CBDC and the impact of "private sector alternatives."
In about two weeks, SEC Chairman Gary Gensler will testify before the full committee. The hearing will be the first time in months that a House committee will discuss issues related to launching a digital dollar in the United States. Congress previously recessed in August.
In addition, some US lawmakers have proposed different ways to address CBDC-related issues, including limiting the Federal Reserve's power to issue digital dollars. Several US states, including Florida, have also passed bills prohibiting CBDC as a payment option. [Original link]
