CLARITY Act Faces Crucial Senate Vote on September 15

The CLARITY Act is facing a crucial Senate vote on September 15, which will determine whether the chamber can begin formal debate on a comprehensive crypto market-structure framework. To pass, the bill needs to clear the 60-vote threshold.

Currently, Republicans control 53 Senate seats, so at least seven Democrats would need to join a unified GOP conference to hit the 60-vote cloture threshold.

The Senate had originally aimed to hold this vote before its August recess but delayed it, which industry participants read as a signal of thinning bipartisan appetite rather than routine scheduling friction.
