United States Sens. Cynthia Lummis and Kirsten Gillibrand will reintroduce legislation aimed at establishing a comprehensive regulatory framework for digital assets.

The U.S. lawmakers said they would reintroduce the Responsible Financial Innovation Act to the Senate on July 12 after roughly a year of being tabled in the previous session of Congress. The bipartisan piece of legislation — Lummis is a member of the Republican Party, and Gillibrand is a Democrat — was aimed at clarifying the roles of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and Commodity Futures Trading Commission in regulating digital assets, as well as providing consumer protection.
