Bitget Wallet Expects CLARITY Act Delay After Democratic Sweep

Bitget Wallet research lead Lacie Zhang expects Democrats’ control of both chambers to delay U.S. crypto market structure legislation, while leaving near-term trading and product access largely unchanged. The CLARITY Act passed the House in 2025, but a Senate procedural vote to advance it failed 49-50 on Sept. 15, 2026. The motion concerned advancing the bill; it was not a final vote on passage. TokenPost previously examined how a possible Democratic sweep could affect crypto legislation . Zhang views passage of the bill in its present form as unlikely before the current session ends or after Democrats assume control in January. Future market structure legislation may require compromises on investor protections and ethics provisions. Legislation could be delayed or rewritten to place greater emphasis on consumer safeguards.
