The Clarity Act cleared the Senate Banking Committee.
The Clarity for Payment Stablecoins Act cleared the Senate Banking Committee, according to a warning from investment bank Jefferies, which noted that the bill still faces significant hurdles despite the committee vote.
The legislation aims to create a federal regulatory framework for digital assets, dividing jurisdiction between the SEC and CFTC and providing clearer rules for crypto intermediaries, tokenization, and decentralized projects, as described by industry observers.
Supporters have argued the act would bring stronger consumer protections and regulatory clarity, while critics have raised concerns about overriding state oversight and enforcement capabilities.
