We break down what to watch on Capitol Hill, including a packed committee schedule across the House Financial Services and Senate Banking Committees and early signals on Kevin Warsh’s prospective Fed Chair confirmation. On the regulatory and administrative side, we cover IEEPA tariff litigation, SEC and CFTC innovation efforts, ongoing CFPB rulemakings, the forthcoming Basel III re-proposal, and stablecoin frameworks taking shape under the GENIUS Act.
