Senate Delays Vote on Caroline Crenshaw's SEC Nomination

7 months ago


The US Senate has canceled the session to consider Caroline Crenshaw's nomination for the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

Reasons for Session Cancellation

The Senate Banking Committee announced that the session scheduled for December 18 has been canceled, making it increasingly unlikely that Caroline Crenshaw's nomination will be confirmed before Republicans take majority control. The session also aimed to discuss Gordon Ito's nomination to the Financial Stability Oversight Council.

Caroline Crenshaw's Role in SEC

Caroline Crenshaw, appointed during Donald Trump's presidency and continuing under Joe Biden, has a term ending in June 2024. She can remain in her role for 18 months post-term expiration. Some crypto groups opposed her nomination, alleging she is more 'anti-crypto' than SEC Chair Gary Gensler. Over 40 organizations supported her nomination, pointing out the low likelihood of Trump appointing any Democratic SEC commissioners.

Implications for Cryptocurrency Regulation

The SEC's political makeup and regulatory approach to crypto were central to Trump's campaign promises, which included the pledge to fire Gensler on his first day. It's unclear whether Senate Republicans will consider Crenshaw's nomination after they gain majority control on January 3. If confirmed, Crenshaw could serve until 2029; otherwise, Trump might appoint an alternative.

The cancellation of the vote on Caroline Crenshaw's nomination contributes to uncertainty regarding the future political makeup of the SEC and its approach to cryptocurrency markets.
