CLARITY Act Vote Advances as Republicans Reject Offer
Republicans said the revised bill already reflects a year of talks, while Democrats sought tougher ethics and DeFi limits before the 60-vote test.
- Senate Republicans rejected a late Democratic counteroffer on September 15, keeping the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act on course for a 60-vote procedural test.
- Democrats presented their counterproposal on Monday night, but negotiators remain deadlocked over ethics restrictions, DeFi protections, and tribal gaming laws.
- Katie Warbinton, a spokesperson for Republican Senator Cynthia Lummis, said Democrats "have not budged an inch," despite the bill containing 126 substantive changes requested by Democrats.
- Republicans control 53 Senate seats, leaving party leaders dependent on seven Democrats to pass the motion before lawmakers depart Washington on September 17.
- The legislation aims to divide oversight between the Securities and Exchange Commission and the CFTC; failure today leaves few chances to revive the bill before November elections.
