Who?
Sen. Cynthia Lummis (R-WY) — Banking, Housing & Urban Development Committee
LISTEN: Laslo & Lummis
Ask a Pol asks:
How are you feeling about stablecoin?
Key Lummis:
“Well, we had a good night last night,” Sen. Cynthia Lummis exclusively told Ask a Pol Tuesday. “So today is going to be about trying to find out who wants to amend the bill. I know Senator Thune is open to an amendment process, and so we're going to try and figure out what amendments might be coming, friendly or unfriendly, and just keep the thing moving.”
Caught our ear:
“One of the biggest questions out there today is whether there will be an effort to attach the Durbin-Marshall bill to this bill, and I don't know the answer so we're just going to do a lot of listening,” Lummis tells us.

Matt Laslo: “Senator Lummis — sneakin’ up on you.”
Cynthia Lummis: “Hi. How you doing?”
