Paradigm’s Justin Slaughter Calls CLARITY Act Dead, Outlines House Democrats’ Crypto Bill

Paradigm senior advisor Justin Slaughter said on Unchained’s livestream Thursday that the CLARITY Act won’t pass in the lame-duck session, and that House Financial Services staff are reportedly writing a market structure bill of their own. “So to break some news, CLARITY does look dead. I don’t think it passes in the lame duck,” he said. “Dems want a chance to rewrite things.” Democrats won majorities in both chambers on Tuesday, with Sen. Elizabeth Warren poised to chair the Senate Banking Committee, as Unchained reported . The bill had stalled in the Senate in September .
