Odaily News: Patrick Witt posted on X platform, stating that the government remains committed to pushing the CLARITY Act through by September. He noted that only legislation can provide lasting rules, and such legislation is needed now more than ever. Additionally, Patrick Witt criticized that every delay Democrats impose on the bill further sets the U.S. back in the crypto race, undermining its global financial market leadership, weakening national security, and depriving law enforcement of tools to combat crypto crime. He stated that the CLARITY Act is the result of years of genuine bipartisan cooperation, and Democrats still have the opportunity to shape U.S. digital asset policy by supporting the legislation. The government will remain open and continue good-faith negotiations until the September vote.
