CLARITY Act Could Reach Trump’s Desk Before July 4, Says Senator Bernie Moreno

U.S. Senator Bernie Moreno has shared a promising timeline for the approval of the highly anticipated CLARITY Act, signaling major progress for crypto regulation in the United States. According to Moreno, the crypto bill could soon move through the Senate and arrive on President Donald Trump’s desk before Independence Day.

Speaking in a video shared by Solana, Moreno credited President Trump for accelerating momentum in the digital asset industry. He stated that significant advances are being made in crypto regulation and pointed to the recent passage of the GENIUS Act as evidence of growing bipartisan support for blockchain legislation.

Moreno explained that the Senate is expected to begin marking up the CLARITY Act as early as next week, although an official schedule has not yet been confirmed. Industry analysts believe the Senate markup process could begin sometime in May. The senator acknowledged that the legislation faces procedural hurdles because several committees have jurisdiction over different aspects of the bill. Despite these challenges, Moreno expressed confidence that lawmakers can combine the proposals into a finalized package quickly.

He predicted that the CLARITY Act could reach President Trump before the end of June and potentially be signed into law before July 4. The statement has fueled optimism across the crypto industry, especially as prediction markets recently showed approval odds climbing as high as 69% before stabilizing in the low 60% range.

Political pressure is also increasing the urgency surrounding the bill. Galaxy Digital’s Alex Thorn noted that upcoming midterm elections and the battle for Senate control could significantly affect the future of crypto legislation. Concerns remain that a Democratic-led Senate Banking Committee under Senator Elizabeth Warren could reshape the bill due to her stricter stance on cryptocurrency regulation.

Senate Banking Committee Chairman Tim Scott recently stated that the CLARITY Act has entered the “red zone,” indicating that lawmakers are nearing a decisive stage. The bill has already passed the House with bipartisan backing, and Senate Republicans are now working to secure enough support for a final vote.
