Trump urges passage of crypto bill amid Senate resistance

The Clarity Act faces opposition tied to concerns that it does not restrict the president’s crypto-related business interests.

Reported · Written up by our desk · Regulation

MarketWatch reports that former President Donald Trump urged lawmakers to move forward with a cryptocurrency bill that is stalled in the Senate.

The effort centers on the Clarity Act, which is meeting resistance because critics say the bill does not limit the president’s lucrative crypto ventures.

According to MarketWatch, Trump said Congress needs to take the next step as the measure continues to face pushback.
