CLARITY Act would lapse on 3 January 2027 without 60 Senate votes

NewsFeeds update

The CLARITY Act would lapse on 3 January 2027, when the 119th Congress ends, unless it wins bipartisan support to clear the Senate's 60-vote threshold. The Digital Chamber expects a Democrat-led House Financial Services Committee to prioritise stablecoin reserve rules, wider consumer disclosure and tighter anti-money-laundering controls.

The story so far: Clarity Act passage prospects

Democrats won back both chambers of Congress in the 3 November midterms, and analysts expect the CLARITY Act to stall. Galaxy Research's Alex Thorn now says no substantive progress on key digital asset legislation is likely, though the SEC, CFTC and bank regulators can keep shaping rules under existing authority.
