Cynthia Lammiss to Lead the U.S. Senate's Digital Assets Subcommittee
As of January 9, 2025, Senator Cynthia Lummis (R-Wyoming) has been appointed as the chair of the Senate Banking Committee's Digital Assets Subcommittee [1]. This appointment comes after the initiative to establish the subcommittee was led by committee chairman Tim Scott.
Senator Lummis, known for her active involvement in digital asset legislation and leadership, has been making headlines since mid-2025. However, the full roster of the subcommittee's members is yet to be officially announced.
According to recent developments, Senator Lummis will be joined by Senators Tillis (NC), Hagerty (Tenn), and McCormick (Pa.) in the subcommittee. Bill Hagerty and Bernie Moreno, both crypto-friendly lawmakers, are also part of the subcommittee.
Meanwhile, Senator Patrick McHenry, the previous chair of the House Financial Services Committee, has left his post at the end of 2024. Senator French Hill, who was heading the digital assets working group, has been involved in drafting the stablecoin and financial innovation bills.
It's important to note that the appointment of the digital assets subcommittee members and its chair is subject to approval by the Senate Banking Committee. As such, the final roster may still undergo changes.
Senator Elizabeth Warren is expected to remain one of the industry's main critics, while Senator Sherrod Brown is not part of the new digital assets subcommittee lineup.
For those seeking the full current roster of the subcommittee members, it is recommended to check the official U.S. Senate Banking Committee website or Congressional records. The internal composition of committees can change with each Congress session.
