The White House “CLARITY Act” negotiation representative will leave next Friday; the bill is expected to be voted on by the Senate on July 20

According to CoinDesk’s latest report, Patrick Witt, the chief negotiator for the White House’s “CLARITY Act,” will step down next Friday and travel to take part in several months of military training.

Notably, this personnel change comes at a critical time as the bill advances, with the full Senate vote expected to be held around July 20.

During Witt’s departure, his deputy, Harry Jung, Deputy Executive Director for Digital Asset Affairs, will take over his responsibilities, handling the final push for the “CLARITY Act” in the Senate.

It is understood that Harry Jung previously served as the chief legal counsel of the Senate Banking Committee and was deeply involved in drafting the bill’s early versions, with extensive legislative experience.

Overall, this personnel change adds new uncertainty as to whether the bill can be smoothly passed by the Senate around July 20.

At present, the market is closely watching whether Jung can effectively coordinate various parties while Witt is absent and push the bill to complete its key legislative procedures.
