A bipartisan bridge to the future: Why the Senate must finish the job on digital Assets The Clarity Act’s recent markup proved that the momentum for regulation is there.
It is imperative that Congress move the bill forward to establish rules this generation needs and a framework the next will inherit, urges Kim
At the recent Senate Banking markup of the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act (CLARITY), Senator Angela Alsobrooks (D-MD) shared a story that should resonate with every parent in America. She spoke about her twenty-year-old daughter and her daughter’s generation – their intuitive interest in digital assets and their desire for a modern financial system that offers both opportunity and protection. It underscored the growing urgency and gravity surrounding digital asset policy in Washington. “The digital revolution is upon us,” Senator Alsobrooks said. “It’s happening with us or without us.
We have a responsibility to regulate it to create rules of the road.” Her remarks reflected the growing recognition that the U.S. can no longer afford to approach digital asset policy reactively. This legislation is not just about the America of today; it is about tomorrow. We owe it to our children and the younger generation to get this policy right.
