Senate to Vote in Mid-September on Clarity Act, Which Would Strip SEC Oversight of Most Crypto Trading

The U.S. Senate plans a mid-September 2026 vote on the Clarity Act, which would remove the SEC from overseeing most cryptocurrency trading and shift supervision to a commodities-oriented regulator. The bill has stalled in the Senate. President Trump hosted crypto executives at the White House on August 19, 2026, ahead of the vote. Passage is not guaranteed.
