White House Crypto Council Director: Still committed to pushing the CLARITY Act through in September

Patrick Witt posted on the X platform stating that the government is still committed to pushing the CLARITY Act through in September. He mentioned that only legislation can provide lasting rules, and there is a greater need for relevant legislation now more than ever.

In addition, Patrick Witt criticized that every time the Democrats delay the bill, it further puts the U.S. behind in the competition in the crypto space, undermines its leadership in the global financial market, weakens national security, and deprives law enforcement of tools to combat crypto crime. He stated that the CLARITY Act is a true bipartisan achievement years in the making, and the Democrats still have the opportunity to shape U.S. digital asset policy by assisting in the legislation. The government will maintain an open attitude and continue good-faith negotiations until the vote in September.
