Summary of Bill SJRES 3

Bill 119 SJRes 3 is a joint resolution that aims to disapprove of a rule submitted by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) regarding the reporting of gross proceeds by brokers who facilitate digital asset sales. The rule in question requires brokers who regularly provide services for digital asset sales to report the gross proceeds from these transactions to the IRS.

The resolution falls under chapter 8 of title 5 of the United States Code, which allows Congress to review and potentially overturn regulations proposed by federal agencies. In this case, Congress is seeking to disapprove of the IRS rule on the grounds that it may impose unnecessary burdens on brokers and hinder the growth of the digital asset market.

Supporters of the resolution argue that the rule could stifle innovation and investment in the digital asset space, while opponents believe that reporting gross proceeds is necessary for tax compliance and enforcement. The resolution is currently under consideration in Congress, where lawmakers will debate its merits before voting on whether to approve or reject the IRS rule. Overall, Bill 119 SJRes 3 is a significant piece of legislation that highlights the ongoing debate over the regulation of digital assets and the role of government oversight in this rapidly evolving industry.

I can't believe this is happening! It's so frustrating to see this decision being made. It's going to have a huge impact on all of us. We need to pay attention to what's going on and make our voices heard. This is a big deal and we can't just sit back and let it happen. Let's stand up for what we believe in and fight against this! #UnitedStatesSJRESBill3 #Disapproval #DigitalAssetSales #BigPicture
