CLARITY Act faces Wednesday deadline for Friday vote
The CLARITY Act was absent from the U.S. Senate‘s published schedule for Monday, Aug. 3, leaving lawmakers with only days to begin floor proceedings before the chamber’s summer break. The official Monday schedule lists a 5:30 p.m. vote on cloture for the motion to proceed to H.R. 6500, a vehicle for a continuing resolution. It includes no scheduled action on H.R. 3633, the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act. The Senates cloture ledger, updated through July 31, also records the July 30 filing for H.R. 6500 but no CLARITY Act petition. The absence does not formally block the crypto market-structure legislation. However, it leaves Senate leaders without a publicly confirmed vehicle or procedural timetable before the Senate begins its tentative state work period on Aug. 10. That break is scheduled to run through Sept. 11.
