During a House Committee on Financial Services hearing entitled "Digital Assets and the Future of Finance: The President’s Working Group on Financial Markets’ Report on Stablecoins", Rep. Meeks is asking questions about American competitiveness and racial inclusion in financial services: "A core recommendation of the president's working group is to require stablecoin issuers to be insured depository institutions. So my question is to what extent was this recommendation, analyzed in the context of the President's executive order on promoting competition, as well as his executive order on racial equity? It occurs to me that limiting stablecoin issuance to insured depository institutions, which have a high barrier to entry could limit competition. Furthermore given the disproportionate amount of people of color that gravitate to non-bank financial institutions, such recommendations could have a racial equity impact. So did the working group, consider this recommendation's impact on both competition and racing equity?" He continues: "You know, there are certainly areas of regulatory gap when it comes to this new type of payment system and technology, and there are also tremendous ways we can use stablecoins to help Underbanked communities and as Chair Waters said, I'm Chair Foreign Affairs. So also well it could help communities abroad who may be facing turmoil, in their home countries. We're hearing about NGOs who can assist refugees with assessing their cost in their new country with the use of stablecoins. Moreover, the population of a country in distress can access a mobile crypto wallet and the government cannot get to it, making it a great use case for humanitarian aid and relief. So how can the Treasury assist some of those NGOs and partnership with stablecoin issuers to help get humanitarian aid out to these populations safely and efficiently? And is there anything that Congress can do to assist in this area?"
