U.S. Senator Lummis: Delaying the Clarity Act is not the time to give up; this fight is far from over

Odaily News, August 7 — The Senate announced that the vote on the Clarity Act has been postponed to September. Senator Lummis, a supporter of the Clarity Act, posted on X, saying, "I have put so much long and hard work into this bill, so you can imagine how frustrated I am right now. Someday I will have more to say, but for now, allow me to say this: we have come this far, and now is absolutely not the time to give up."

"I will not give up, because I deeply believe in my heart that this industry deserves to thrive under clear rules on American soil; consumers deserve to be protected from fraud and have the confidence to participate in our digital economy; and law enforcement should also have the necessary tools to hold bad actors accountable."

"The Clarity Act is the only way for us to achieve these goals. The status quo is flawed in every way, and I will not rest until we fix this broken system. I will continue to work hand in hand with my colleagues to reach this goal—this fight is far from over."
