<description>&lt;p&gt;H.R. 2868 would eliminate the exemption from State regulation for certain securities designated by national securities exchanges.&lt;/p&gt;


&lt;h2 id=&quot;toc0&quot;&gt; Detailed Summary &lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;lt;b&amp;gt;(This measure has not been amended since it was introduced. The summary of that version is repeated here.)&amp;lt;/b&amp;gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Amends the Securities Act of 1933, with respect to exclusive federal registration of nationally traded securities, to exclude from exclusive federal regulation, and thus permit state regulation of, certain securities any one of specified securities exchanges has listed (or authorized for listing) in a tier or segment for uncovered securities, according to standards for designating such a tier or segment the exchange has adopted.&lt;/p&gt;


&lt;!--Leave in the 'summary' tags if you want the latest summary from the Congressional Research Service automatically to replace the text between the tags once it becomes available. --&gt;

&lt;h2 id=&quot;toc1&quot;&gt; Status of the Legislation &lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Latest Major Action: 10/24/2007: Referred to Senate committee. Status: Received in the Senate and Read twice and referred to the Committee on Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs.&lt;/p&gt;


&lt;!-- Leave in the 'status' tags if you want the latest reported status from THOMAS automatically to replace the text between the tags once it becomes available. --&gt;

&lt;h2 id=&quot;toc2&quot;&gt; Points in Favor &lt;/h2&gt;
