Senator Tim Scott says Senate should vote on crypto market structure legislation in July
Scott called for action on crypto market structure legislation and said, "It’s time to deliver for the American people."
Fact Check
The linked Bitcoin Magazine post (2026-06-29) and multiple independent crypto news accounts on X carry the identical statement and quote attributed to Tim Scott. The Senate Banking Committee under Scott advanced the crypto market structure (CLARITY Act) bill in May 2026 (Troutman, Roll Call), making a July 2026 floor-vote call coherent and contextually supported. The claim accurately reflects the reported statement and quote. The only minor uncertainty is that the immediate sources are news/aggregator posts rather than an official Scott channel release, but corroboration is strong and consistent.
Summary
U.S. Senator Tim Scott said the Senate should vote on crypto market structure legislation in July, signaling a potential near-term step for digital-asset policy in Washington. Crypto market structure legislation typically sets the rules for how digital assets are classified and which regulators oversee trading, issuance, and market conduct. Scott framed the push as a matter of policy delivery, saying, "It’s time to deliver for the American people."
