BlockBeats report, May 23: Cryptocurrency journalist Eleanor Terrett disclosed that due to disagreements over border security, the U.S. Senate failed to reach an agreement this week, delaying the Crypto Market Structure Act (also known as the CLARITY Act) until early June for potential Senate consideration. With multiple priority items—funding, housing, farm bills, and FISA expiration—piling up, the prospects of the bill advancing to a full Senate vote in July and passing before the August recess remain uncertain. Senate staff are currently continuing to merge the texts from the Agriculture and Banking Committees and advancing technical drafting during the recess.
