The most likely vote window for the CLARITY Act is July 2026 , with negotiators aiming to finalize text around the July 4 recess and then move it after senators return on July 13. Coverage this week says the Senate calendar is tight, so a floor vote could slip later in July or be pushed toward the August recess if negotiations stall.

What’s known

  • Senator Cynthia Lummis said negotiators expect final Senate compromise text around the July 4 recess and plan to “move in July”.
  • Reports say the Senate adjourned until July 13, leaving less floor time before August.
  • The bill still faces procedural hurdles, including the 60-vote Senate threshold and reconciliation with House and committee versions.

Quick read

  • Earliest realistic window: after July 13, 2026.
  • Best current estimate: sometime in July 2026.
  • Risk to timing: schedule pressure could delay the vote.
