With New Speaker, Congress Eyes Path Forward on Stalled Crypto Bills

With election of Mike Johnson as House speaker, Congress can move forward on crypto bills again.

Johnson's views on crypto largely unknown, unlike other speaker candidates like Tom Emmer.

Rep. French Hill led subcommittee hearing on crypto legislation with Johnson as temporary speaker.

Now Johnson sworn in, House can bring crypto bills passed in committee to floor vote.

But House may need to address spending bill before Nov. 17 to avoid government shutdown.
