Garlinghouse: Senate Should Stand Behind 'Product of Real Trades' in CLARITY Act Vote

Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse has weighed in on the CLARITY Act, urging senators to support it ahead of the cloture vote. In a statement on X, he emphasized that the bill is not a compromise but rather 'the product of real, substantive trades policymakers made to get here.'

Garlinghouse acknowledged that concessions were made during the negotiations, but argued they were significant ones. He pointed out that the bill has earned its support through this process.

The Ripple CEO pushed for pragmatism in crypto legislation, stating 'perfect can't be the enemy of good.' He also emphasized that senators are not settling for a subpar option, but rather backing something that deserves their full support.

Garlinghouse's message to the Senate was clear: 'The world is watching, and voters are watching. Now is the time to vote yes.'
