White House crypto adviser feels ‘very good’ ahead of Senate vote on Clarity Act

Senate Clarity Act — The White House’s top cryptocurrency adviser has expressed optimism that key crypto legislation will advance in the Senate this week.

The adviser said he feels “very good” about an initial procedural vote on the Financial Innovation and Technology for the 21st Century Act, or FIT21, scheduled for Tuesday in the Senate. The statement marks a significant moment of public White House engagement with the legislative process for the comprehensive digital asset regulatory framework.

While the House of Representatives already passed its version of the FIT21 Clarity Act in May 2026, its progress in the Senate has been uncertain. This week’s vote will test the bill’s support and determine if it can proceed to a full Senate floor debate.

Final passage and enactment would require further votes in the Senate and a reconciliation process with the House version, followed by the President’s signature.
