U.S. Senate blocks Clarity Act but revote still possible

The U.S. Senate rejected a cloture vote on the Clarity Act, a digital asset market structure bill, by 49 to 50, leaving a procedural path for a revote. Republican Senator Thom Tillis switched his vote to preserve reconsideration options. With an Oct. 2 recess and election-related delays in both chambers, passage this year looks harder. Democrats seek stronger ethics provisions, citing President Donald Trump’s crypto interests, while talks continue over amendments and enforcement.
