Rushed CLARITY Act vote could set legislation back, Gallego warns

COINTELEGRAPH ·

Democratic Senator Ruben Gallego warned that rushing the CLARITY Act to a Senate vote before lawmakers resolve disputes over ethics and stablecoin yield could set United States crypto market structure legislation back. Speaking at the SALT Wyoming Blockchain Symposium on Wednesday, Gallego said the crypto industry should encourage Senate Democrats and Republicans to continue negotiating instead of pushing for an immediate vote. He said lawmakers still had to address the bill’s Agriculture Committee portion, assemble the broader package and determine how to send it to the House. The warning complicates the Trump administration’s push for swift passage by suggesting that a procedural vote could arrive before negotiators have assembled the bipartisan coalition needed to reach the Senate’s 60-vote threshold. “Don’t go for a fast vote,” Gallego said. “A fast vote gets you a fast result, but I’m not sure it’s the result you want.” He added that Congress still had a lot of steps to complete and that “any premature movement is going to set it back further.” Gallego said he and Republican Senator Thom Tillis submitted compromise ethics language to the White House before the congressional recess but had not received a point-by-point response. He said that sufficiently strong ethics restrictions were necessary to attract Democratic support and advance the bill. “We’ve been sending offers over and over again to the White House, and they’ve been coming back either blank, or they’ve come back even slightly further back, or we’ve heard nothing,” Gallego said. Cointelegraph reached out to the White House for comment but did not receive a response before publication.

On Wednesday, Trump urged Congress to pass a “fair version” of the CLARITY Act during a White House appearance with crypto executives. Senate leaders have delayed action until September. On Aug. 7, Senate Majority Leader John Thune confirmed to Cointelegraph that the chamber was “punting” the vote and said CLARITY would be queued up “first thing” after lawmakers returned from recess. White House crypto adviser Patrick Witt previously said the administration would negotiate with Democrats until the September vote but “can’t afford to wait forever.” Magazine: ‘Fabricated rumors’ about BitMart founder, Binance bStocks dominate: Asia Express

갈레고 의원의 경고는 CLARITY Act의 조기 통과 기대감을 약화시키며 암호화폐 시장 전반의 규제 불확실성을 높이는 요인으로 작용합니다. 입법 지연 우려는 투자 심리를 위축시켜 관련 자산의 변동성을 확대시킬 가능성이 큽니다.

강세 시나리오는 규제 보완을 통한 장기적 안정성 확보이며, 약세 시나리오는 입법 무산에 따른 규제 공백 장기화입니다. 주목할 지표는 미 의회의 암호화폐 관련 법안 논의 재개 여부와 규제 당국의 움직임입니다.
