BISENT supports the final draft of the CLARITY law before a Senate vote
The CLARITY law gains fresh support from the Treasury Department as lawmakers face a crucial vote.
On September 14, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent endorsed the final draft and highlighted the proposed powers to protect community banks if stablecoins cause harm.
Bill sponsors in the Senate say the revised text includes 126 amendments requested by Democrats, along with updates to ethics provisions and protections for software developers. It also proposes additional authority for the Treasury Department regarding stablecoin-linked deposit flight.
The procedural vote on September 15 requires 60 votes to move forward in the legislative process. Support remains uncertain, and final approval will still require additional steps.
My view: The practical issue is how the clearest rules regarding crypto interact with concerns that banks could lose deposits. For trading platforms and token companies, workable oversight requirements may make long-term planning easier. For stablecoin platforms, handling incentives may affect product design and customer demand.
I will watch to see whether the undecided senators will accept these concessions, and which amendments will survive,
