#CLARITYActVoteWatch #CLARITYActVoteWatch Genuine last-minute momentum: Senator Lummis confirmed July 31 that the Senate will vote on CLARITY next week, before the August recess — Thune has reportedly reserved floor time "for many, many weeks now," according to Lummis. Treasury Secretary Bessent also publicly pushed for a pre-recess vote the same day. But Thune himself is measured: "I would like to at least get Clarity started. We'll see where the votes are" — a floor vote isn't the same as passage. Polymarket prices ~33% odds of 2026 passage; Galaxy Research even lower at 30%. Even starting the process could get eaten by competing priorities — Lummis notes only "one more week" remains, with nominations, a continuing resolution, and Iran/Russia-Ukraine sanctions votes all competing for floor time. The core math hasn't changed: 60 votes needed, only Gallego and Alsobrooks crossed over in committee (both with caveats), and a revised draft with temporary ethics restrictions still hasn't cleared full Democratic review. If the Senate fails to act, the only protection left standing is the SEC/CFTC's March interpretive guidance — reversible overnight by any future administration, unlike actual legislation.
