The Senate failed to advance the CLARITY Act, and Warren stated that the Trump family's cryptocurrency profits amounted to 1.4 billion dollars

U.S. Senator Elizabeth Warren delivered a speech in the Senate lasting over 10 minutes, calling for a vote against the CLARITY Act. She stated that Trump and his family profited $1.4 billion from the crypto business in 2025 alone, exceeding the revenue of any publicly listed crypto company in the U.S. last year, and that buyers of his crypto projects lost billions of dollars, with meme coin buyers losing nearly $4 billion.

The Senate failed to pass the procedural vote with a result of 49-50, falling short by 11 votes of the 60 needed to begin debate, with no Democrats voting to advance it. Warren claimed that the bill would exacerbate Trump's corruption and criticized the ethical terms negotiated by the Republicans with the White House as a "tiny fig leaf," stating that it would not prevent Trump from continuing to profit from crypto.

Warren also stated that the bill would create a huge loophole in nearly a century of securities law, allowing non-crypto companies to put assets on-chain to evade investor protections, and enabling banks to use customer deposits for crypto lending, trading derivatives, operating nodes, and selling related software.
