Trump weighs CLARITY Act ethics counter-proposal, Senate needs to secure 60 votes by August 7
Odaily Planet Daily News U.S. President Trump is weighing the bipartisan CLARITY Act ethics counter-proposal. Senate negotiators need to finalize crypto conflict-of-interest rules by August 7 before the recess. The bill aims to establish a federal regulatory framework for crypto companies through the division of labor between the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC).
Republican Senator Thom Tillis and Democratic Senator Ruben Gallego submitted a state attorneys general enforcement plan to the White House on July 29. This plan allows state-level agencies to enforce the ban on federal officials issuing or sponsoring digital tokens, rather than having the Justice Department handle related violations alone.
The U.S. House of Representatives passed a version of the bill on July 17 with 294 votes in favor and 134 against, with over 70 Democrats voting in favor. The Senate has not yet held a full floor vote. The bill needs 60 votes to pass; if all Republicans support it, at least 7 Democratic votes are still required.
