Senate Republicans have introduced a revised Clarity Act draft featuring strict ethics rules to satisfy Democratic demands, setting the stage for a pivotal procedural vote on September 15. The legislation faces a high bar for passage, requiring a bipartisan coalition to overcome opposition from major banks and ensure final action before the November midterms.

  • Per GN markets/crypto (en-US), the critical procedural vote has been set for September 15, with analysts noting that at least seven Democrats must cross the aisle to secure the necessary 60 votes. The report highlights that U.S. banks are actively lobbying against the bill over stablecoin interest payments, while Bitcoin trades at $77,800 ahead of the decision.
