#USSenateNoClarityActVoteBeforeAugustBreak **No CLARITY Act Vote Before August Break 🇺🇸⏳ **
The countdown is over — and crypto didn't get its win. 😔 Senate Majority Leader John Thune confirmed the CLARITY Act will **not** get a vote before the August recess, pushing the landmark crypto market structure bill to September. 📅
Despite Senator Lummis pushing hard for a floor vote and Thune himself saying earlier this week he'd bring it to the floor, Democrats held firm. 🚫 They refused to budge on cloture without progress on three key issues: ethics enforcement, illicit finance provisions, and stablecoin yield rules.$
**Key numbers:** 🔢
- Republicans hold 53 seats, needed ~7 Democratic votes to hit the 60-vote threshold. ❌ Didn't happen.
- Senate returns September 14 — first possible vote could land September 15–16. 🗓️
- 🎯 Prediction markets had already priced the bill's chance of becoming law in 2026 at only around 30–33%. [CryptoNews.com](https://cryptonews.com/news/clarity-act-senate-vote-60-vote-threshold/)
**What's next:** ⚡
Lummis says she's still working with Thune to get this "queued up first thing" when the Senate reconvenes. Until then, crypto firms keep operating under SEC/CFTC guidance instead of a clear federal statute — meaning the regulatory uncertainty that's dogged the industry all year isn't going away just yet. 🌀
