Washington, D.C. (June 17, 2025) — Independent Community Bankers of America (ICBA) President and CEO Rebeca Romero Rainey issued the following statement on the Senate’s passage of the Guiding and Establishing National Innovation for U.S. Stablecoins (GENIUS) Act (S. 1582).
“On behalf of the nation’s community bankers, ICBA appreciates the work by the Senate to address concerns raised by ICBA with the GENIUS Act throughout the legislative process in order to provide regulatory clarity while protecting against the negative economic consequences that would result from community bank disintermediation. ICBA understands the importance of having a clear regulatory framework for stablecoins and has worked closely with the Senate to incorporate critical guardrails to protect consumers and our payments system. As the House determines how it will consider stablecoin legislation, ICBA looks forward to continuing to work with the House to ensure it is further strengthened to address community banker concerns so that the measure fully protects the role community banks serve in local communities across America. With community banks using deposits to make 60% of the nation’s small-business loans and 80% of banking industry agricultural lending, preserving the role of community banks — which have proven commitments to their communities and local credit creation — is critical as Congress deliberates substantial changes to our payments ecosystem.”
