U.S. Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) and Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) have asked regulators to clarify their rules on former employees taking roles in the crypto industry.
In a letter sent to almost all federal financial regulators, the lawmakers noted “the increasing number of revolving door hires” and asked how long individuals involved in regulating the crypto industry are barred from seeking employment in it.
