Safe banking coming next week? A key Senate committee chairman said on Thursday that a hearing on a bipartisan marijuana banking bill could be scheduled as early as next week, adding that lawmakers are going to “move quickly on it.”
Senate Banking Committee Chairman Sherrod Brown (D-OH) told NBC News reporters that his panel could hold a hearing on the Secure and Fair Enforcement (SAFE) Banking Act as soon as next Thursday, May 11.
While a hearing hasn’t been formally scheduled yet, the comments come as senators on both sides of the aisle push for urgent action on the recently refiled legislation from Sens. Jeff Merkley (D-OR) and Steve Daines (R-MT).
