French Hill has chaired the Subcommittee on Digital Assets, Financial Technology and Inclusion since its creation in January 2023.
Arkansas Representative French Hill, who chairs the United States House Financial Services Subcommittee on Digital Assets, Financial Technology and Inclusion, reportedly plans to take over leadership of the full committee following Patrick McHenry’s departure.
According to a March 17 Punchbowl News report, Hill is one of the contenders to chair the full financial services committee starting in January 2025, when McHenry’s term will end. McHenry announced in December 2023 that he did not plan to seek reelection after 20 years in office.
Hill has chaired the digital assets subcommittee since its creation in January 2023 and serves as vice chair of the full House committee. Under his and McHenry’s leadership, the committee has conducted hearings into crypto-related issues, including the financing of terrorism and money laundering.
