Trump meets advisers over ethics terms in CLARITY crypto bill

  • President Trump met advisers about ethics provisions for the CLARITY Act.
  • Senate Democrats seek limits on Trump profiting from his family’s crypto businesses.
  • Tuesday’s vote will test bipartisan compromise before the Senate recesses.

President Trump met with advisers to discuss government ethics provisions under consideration for inclusion in the CLARITY Act, a crypto market-structure bill. The meeting took place before the Senate’s procedural vote next Tuesday, which will determine whether the legislation moves forward. Senate Democrats are seeking ethics language covering government officials and limiting Trump’s ability to profit from his family’s crypto businesses. The outcome of the meeting and the identities of the advisers who attended were not immediately clear. The ethics provisions are one of the bill’s main obstacles in the Senate, alongside a partisan dispute over whether the Justice Department or state attorneys general should lead enforcement. The vote will test whether lawmakers can reach a compromise on the central disputes before the Senate recesses.
