Patrick McHenry, the top Republican on the House Committee on Financial Services, has asked the US Treasury Department to delay the implementation of the crypto tax provision in the previous year's Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act.
Rep. Patrick Henry, who will be the chair of the House Committee on Financial Services when Republicans take over the U.S. House of Representatives when the new Congress takes charge next month, wrote in a letter to Janet Yellen, the Treasury Secretary, asking the provision to not be implemented until it's clear which people will be affected by it.
