CLARITY Act lame-duck push: senators from both parties weighing another run at crypto market structure

9/17/2026

A second window may be opening for the CLARITY Act before the current Congress expires.

Adrian Wall, managing director of the Digital Sovereignty Alliance, says senators from both parties are considering another attempt to advance the crypto market structure bill during the lame-duck session.

Another attempt implies a prior one. The bill has moved through some portion of the legislative process without reaching a final floor vote.

Wall serves as managing director of the Digital Sovereignty Alliance, a policy advocacy organization. That role is the basis for his read on current Senate activity.
