The bill, initially planned for discussion in January, was previously postponed on January 15.<\/p>\n<p>The report cites that the primary reason for the delay is the prioritization of housing policies backed by US President Donald Trump. An anonymous source indicated that, ahead of the midterm elections in November, the Trump administration requested the Senate Banking Committee to shift legislative priorities from crypto regulations to housing policies. Although the process seems stalled again, Bloomberg notes that this additional delay could give the Committee more time to develop a bill that might garner broader support from crypto companies. Industry representatives argue that extra negotiation time could yield a clearer and more comprehensive regulation in the long run.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Senate_Agriculture_Committee_Moves_Separately\"><\/span>Senate Agriculture Committee Moves Separately<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>While the Banking Committee process is on hold, the Senate Agriculture Committee is taking a different approach. According to Eleanor Terrett from the <em>Crypto in America<\/em> program, the Committee has released a revised draft of the CLARITY Act to the public. Although all details of the draft are not yet disclosed, Committee Chairman John Boozman expressed disappointment that a common ground with Democrats has not been reached. Boozman noted that serious disagreements on key policy issues remain:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em>&#8220;Disagreements on fundamental policy issues continue. It is unfortunate that we have not reached a full agreement.&#8221;<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Boozman also mentioned that he eagerly anticipates the session on the CLARITY Act planned for January 27 at 23:00 TSI. According to the current schedule, the Senate Agriculture Committee plans to vote on the CLARITY Act on that date. After this stage, the drafts from the Banking and Agriculture Committees will need to be reconciled before a full Senate vote.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Trump_Sends_a_Clear_Message_%E2%80%9CI_Hope_to_Sign_Soon%E2%80%9D\"><\/span>Trump Sends a Clear Message: \u201cI Hope to Sign Soon\u201d<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Despite all the uncertainties, US President Donald Trump stated at Davos that he hopes to sign the CLARITY Act soon. While this indicates the White House\u2019s continued political will on crypto regulation, divisions within Congress remain a significant obstacle to accelerating the process. The new delay in the CLARITY Act highlights how complex and politically sensitive crypto legislation in the US continues to be. The coming weeks will be critical for the future of the US crypto market, both in terms of Senate votes and the Trump administration\u2019s approach.<\/p>\n<p class=\"darkmysite_style_txt_border darkmysite_processed\" data-start=\"4050\" data-end=\"4267\" data-darkmysite_alpha_bg=\"rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\"><em class=\"darkmysite_style_txt_border darkmysite_processed\" data-darkmysite_alpha_bg=\"rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\">You can also freely share your thoughts and comments about the topic in the comment section.
