The US Senate Banking Committee advances the CLARITY Act after voting to clear it from committee, with lawmakers debating proposed amendments. According to reporting from both outlets, the committee discussion includes changes tied to ethics and other provisions relevant to establishing a digital asset market structure. The committee vote is described as drawing bipartisan support, moving the bill past a key procedural hurdle. With the measure now set for consideration by the full Senate, the next step is a potential Senate floor vote. CoinDesk characterizes the clearance as positioning the bill for a vote within weeks, while CoinTelegraph highlights that lawmakers debate amendments before advancing the legislation. Both accounts indicate that the ethics-related issues are a central focus going into the next stage, as senators consider whether additional revisions are needed prior to a full chamber vote. No final outcome is reported, and the timeline for the full Senate vote depends on the scheduling and further deliberations following committee approval.
