The U.S. Senate’s public agenda for Monday does not include the CLARITY Act, according to a ChainCatcher report. For now, senators are scheduled only to take a procedural vote on H.R.6500, a continuing resolution. Under Senate rules, a standard cloture filing requires signatures from at least 16 senators. If such a filing were submitted on Wednesday, Aug. 5, the earliest related vote could come on Friday, Aug. 7. That vote, however, would only address whether to end debate on the motion to proceed, not final passage of the CLARITY Act itself. Even if cloture were invoked, the Senate would still need to spend up to 30 hours debating the motion to proceed, move into formal consideration of the bill, and possibly face another cloture process later. Based on that timeline, the normal procedural path may not be completed before the recess.
