Josh Hawley Becomes First Republican To Oppose CLARITY Act: 'They Are Blowing Me Up Over It'

Senator Josh Hawley (R-MO) said Wednesday he will vote against advancing the Clarity Act unless lawmakers strengthen protections for community banks, making him the first Republican to publicly oppose the bill. Why Hawley Is Voting No? Hawley on Wednesday told Politico that farmers, ranchers, and community bankers in Missouri are flooding his office with concerns that stablecoin rewards programs could pull deposits away from local banks and cut off agricultural lending in small towns. “I’m going to vote with my state on this,” Hawley said. “My state right now — agriculture folks, local community people — are very, very worried about the effect on community banks. They are blowing me up over it.” Banking groups want the bill to include stronger restrictions on crypto rewards programs, arguing they function like interest on deposits and could trigger deposit flight from traditional checking and savings accounts. Meanwhile, crypto firms say the banks are trying to ban competition. Where The Vote Count Stands Now?

According to an interview published by Fox News on Wednesday, Rulli, whose family owns the Ohio-based Rulli Brothers grocery chain, said government-run stores would struggle to compete sustainably because of the industry’s thin profit margins. He argued the city’s $70 million plan to open one municipal grocery store in each of New York City’s five boroughs would ultimately burden taxpayers while harming neighborhood retailers. Rulli Says Grocery Economics Don’t Work “That supermarket will just bleed red the entire time it’s open, from the first time you turn the key until it closes,” Rulli said. “And I would bet the farm there’s no way these grocery stores last more than five years. They might not even last a year.” Drawing on his family’s experience in the grocery business, Rulli said municipal stores would place hundreds of independent retailers at a disadvantage. “You will put hundreds of these small businesses out of business. And a lot of these businesses are owned by immigrants,” he said. “I don’t think
