U.S. Senators Elizabeth Warren and Chuck Grassley have called for an investigation into multiple meetings between U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) Chairperson Rostin Behnam and former FTX CEO Sam Bankman-Fried (SBF). Warren and Grassley pressured the CFTC on SBF to take stock of all meetings and correspondence between his office and SBF, and Behna has previously told Congress that he met with SBF and its team on multiple occasions to process the company's application to the agency. It is reported that the CFTC confirmed that it had received the letter from Warren and Grassley, but declined to comment further.
