The CLARITY Act enters the Senate's final scheduled week before the August recess, with prediction markets pricing the odds of the bill becoming law this year below even money.
Monday's floor schedule opened with H.R. 6500, a government funding vehicle, and CLARITY has yet to appear on the calendar. Negotiators are still working through disputes over government ethics provisions and stablecoin rewards, two sticking points that have slowed progress on the legislation.
Aug. 7 marks the last scheduled weekday before recess. The Senate's state work period begins Aug. 10 and runs through Sept. 11, leaving senators five weekdays to produce floor action before the break.
