상원이 휴회에 들어가면서 Clarity Act는 중요한 2주 기간에 들어갑니다.

Bitcoin Magazine Clarity Act Enters Critical Two-Week Window as Senate Heads Into Recess The Senate has left Washington for the July 4 recess, and the fate of the Clarity Act , the most sweeping digital asset market structure legislation Congress has ever attempted, now rests on negotiations happening out of public view, according to reporting from Crypto in America. Senators return July 13. From that point, the window to pass the bill before August recess is narrow, and the remaining obstacles are substantial. Senate Majority Leader John Thune has signaled he wants to use the week of July 13 for the National Defense Authorization Act, the must-pass defense bill. That would push Clarity Act floor consideration to late July or the first week of August, the final stretch before Congress breaks for summer. The 60-vote threshold is the central problem. Assuming all 53 Republicans vote yes — not a safe assumption, given Senators Josh Hawley and Rand Paul both voted against the GENIUS Act — the bill still needs at least seven Democrats.

As of now, no deal has been reached. Senator Cynthia Lummis floated one possible path last week: language that would allow state attorneys general to sue crypto exchanges that list tokens issued by public officials in violation of the act. Whether that satisfies the Democrats whose votes are in play remains an open question — and the White House, which would need to sign off on any compromise, has not yet weighed in. A second fault line runs through Section 604, which incorporates the Blockchain Regulatory Certainty Act. Law enforcement groups argue the provision, as written, would impede their ability to investigate and prosecute on-chain crime. Some industry stakeholders have indicated openness to targeted revisions, but no agreement has been reached. The Agriculture Committee text presents a third set of problems. Sources familiar with the negotiations point to federal preemption of state law, conflict-of-interest rules for crypto exchanges, and restrictions on affiliate trading as unresolved sticking points that staff will need to work through before senators return. On July 17, the House Financial Services Committee has scheduled a field hearing to examine “how the Clarity Act unlocks innovation.” Senator Tim Scott, chair of the Senate Banking Committee, has been among those pushing for the bill’s passage — a signal that Republican leadership remains committed, at least in principle, to get
