Democratic Senator Backs Clarity Act — With Proposed Law Enforcement Changes Included: Report 

Bipartisan work on the long-awaited Clarity Act continues after Democratic senator Catherine Cortez Masto said that she, along with two law enforcement groups, are feeling “good” about proposed changes to the bill, according to a news report.

Along with the National Association of Assistant U.S. Attorneys and the National District Attorneys Association, Cortez backed changes to the bill and said they felt positive about “the chance to resolve this issue once and for all,” according to a POLITICO report.

The changes were sent to the White House. A number of lawmakers are hoping the Clarity Act — which would set in stone crypto regulation in the U.S. — gets passed before Congress departs for August recess. But some sticking points remain — particularly with Democrats.
