HRES-212 : Still Just a Bill


H. Res. 212 is a resolution passed by the House of Representatives on March 11, 2025, regarding Senate Joint Resolution 3. The House believes that Senate Joint Resolution 3, which concerns an Internal Revenue Service (IRS) rule on "Gross Proceeds Reporting by Brokers That Regularly Provide Services Effectuating Digital Asset Sales," contravenes the Constitution. Specifically, the House argues that it violates the first clause of the seventh section of the first article. Furthermore, the House asserts that Senate Joint Resolution 3 infringes upon the privileges of the House. As a result, the House resolves to return Senate Joint Resolution 3 to the Senate with a message communicating their concerns.
