The U.S. Senate reportedly failed to advance the CLARITY Act on September 15, 2026, in a procedural setback for a digital-asset market-structure package that passed the House more than a year earlier. The report has not been matched against an official Senate roll call, tally, or timestamp. The measure is H.R. 3633 of the 119th Congress, formally titled the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act of 2025, or CLARITY Act of 2025. The official House-engrossed text shows that the House of Representatives passed it on July 17, 2025. The reported vote involved cloture (a procedure to end debate) on a motion to proceed, rather than final passage, and CoinDesk reported that the motion required 60 votes. Failure to invoke cloture would stall floor consideration but would not itself constitute final rejection or withdrawal. The reported outcome remains unconfirmed, and no next vote date, reconsideration action, or leadership plan was verified. CoinDesk reported that Republicans rejected a Democratic counteroffer before the vote and attributed criticism of that offer to Senator Cynthia Lummis. Coin Center’s Jason Somensatto separately said the revised Blockchain Regulatory Certainty Act retained protections for qualifying non-controlling developers but removed explicit protection against criminal liability under 18 U.S.C. Section 1960. The House version would divide digital-commodity oversight between the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, and includes Title VI, the Anti-CBDC Surveillance State Act, addressing Federal Reserve issuance or use of a central bank digital currency. Those provisions belong to the July 2025 House text and should not be treated as the unverified Senate version. The reported setback follows other stalled crypto legislation, including reports that the Senate declined to advance the GENIUS Act and an earlier 48-49 vote blocking stablecoin regulation.
