House Republican leaders have cut a deal to move forward with three crypto bills that were stuck in a record-long procedural vote after Republican hardliners refused to back down on central bank digital currencies.
A vote to set up floor debate on the bills was open for over nine hours — the longest in the House’s history. The measure eventually passed late on Wednesday with a vote of 217-212 in favor.
