The prospects of the CLARITY Act passing before August are uncertain, as the U.S. Senate agenda is stacked with multiple priority items.

Abstract generation in progress

BlockBeats news. On May 23, crypto journalist Eleanor Terrett disclosed that the U.S. Senate this week failed to reach an agreement due to disagreements over border security, pushing the Cryptocurrency Market Structure Act (i.e., the CLARITY Act) back to early June to seek time for debate in the Senate. With a backlog of multiple priorities, including funding, housing, farm bills, and the expiration of the FISA, prospects are in doubt that the bill will pass after entering the Senate floor in July and before the Senate adjourns in August. At present, Senate staff are continuing to merge the texts of the Agriculture Committee and the Banking Committee, and advancing technical drafting during the recess.

Agriculture + Bank Committee merger, I've seen this script before.

FISA expiration is not urgent, and encryption legislation is even less likely.

The efficiency of the Senate is such that on-chain confirmations are faster than it.

Funds, housing, farms all queued up, who’s at the back in the crypto queue?

Border security disagreements are bottlenecked, and CLARITY has been delayed again.
