A committee markup has been discussed for late April, according to recent statements from lawmakers, positioning the coming weeks as critical for the bill\u2019s trajectory.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sacks, who recently stepped down from his White House role overseeing artificial intelligence and crypto policy, framed the CLARITY Act as the next step in cementing U.S. leadership in digital assets.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He pointed to prior progress under the GENIUS Act, which focused on stablecoin regulatory frameworks, arguing that broader market structure rules are now required. He remarked in a statement:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cThe time to act is now. Senate Banking and then the full Senate should pass the market structure. I\u2019m confident that they will. And then President Trump will sign this landmark bill into law.\u201d<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This follows a separate call from U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent urging the Senate Banking Committee to hold a markup and advance the bill to the president.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Regulators Signal Readiness to Implement<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Regulatory leadership has also aligned behind the push. <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/ChairmanSelig\/status\/2042243875410935898\">Selig echoed<\/a> Bessent\u2019s position in a public statement on X\u00a0 and emphasised operational readiness, stating that both the Commodity Futures Trading Commission and the Securities and Exchange Commission could move quickly to implement aspects of the framework if enacted, as outlined in the legislation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">According to Selig, the CLARITY Act would provide durability against policy reversals under future administrations &#8211; a recurring concern for the digital asset sector.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">SEC Chair Paul Atkins said in a statement tied to \u201cProject Crypto\u201d, an initiative described as an internal initiative intended to support implementation once legislation is enacted, once Congress acts. He wrote:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cProject Crypto is designed so that once Congress acts, the SEC and CFTC are ready to implement the CLARITY Act. Comprehensive market structure legislation is essential to future-proof oversight against potential regulatory overreach.\u201d<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h2>Senate Timeline Creates Pressure for April Markup<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Despite bipartisan movement in prior stages, the bill faces a constrained timeline in the Senate. Cynthia Lummis confirmed that the Banking Committee aims to hold a markup in the second half of April.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, Bernie Moreno has warned that failure to pass the legislation by May could push consideration into the period following the November 2026 midterm elections, effectively sidelining comprehensive crypto regulation for an extended period.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The CLARITY Act previously cleared the House with a 294\u2013134 vote in July 2025, reflecting notable bipartisan support. The Senate Agriculture Committee advanced its portion of the bill in January 2026, but momentum has since slowed.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Banking Committee has already postponed its markup twice &#8211; first in January amid unresolved policy differences between committees, and again in March &#8211; raising concerns about further delays.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Officials Increase Public Calls for Senate Action<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The synchronised statements from Sacks, Bessent, Selig, and Atkins point to an intensifying push from several officials who have publicly supported the legislation as the Senate reopens deliberations.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With prior delays and a shrinking legislative calendar, the coming weeks may represent a key window for advancing the legislation before the Senate\u2019s legislative calendar becomes more constrained through the Senate before election-cycle dynamics take hold.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Whether that pressure translates into legislative action will likely become clear as the Banking Committee resumes work later this month.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Trump allies are urging the Senate to pass the CLARITY Act as crypto regulators signal readiness and a narrow legislative window
