U.S. Senator Cynthia Lummis said in a post on X that Democrats had previously pushed to bar chief compliance officers from holding roles at affiliated crypto entities when those positions created conflicts of interest, and that the language was written into the CLARITY Act. Lummis said Democrats later indicated that the provision was "not needed." The statement was presented as Lummis’s account of how the issue was handled in connection with the bill. No additional details were provided in the source about the specific provision, the timing of the change, or any further response from Democratic lawmakers.
