[U.S. Senator Lummis: Ethical standards and other provisions in the Clarity Act will undergo further discussion] According to CoinDesk, U.S. Senator Cynthia Lummis, a key negotiator of the Clarity Act, stated that while the latest text of the bill has been released, several provisions, including ethical standards, will continue to be discussed over the weekend. The latest text is not the final version. Lummis revealed that Republican negotiators and Democrats have been in talks for 'several consecutive weeks,' but remain deadlocked over whether state attorneys general can initiate criminal or civil lawsuits based on the ethical provisions—a matter that is a 'clear red line' for many senators and the White House, as the White House has been sued multiple times by state attorneys general. Lummis suggested that state governments could instead sue crypto exchanges that list non-compliant assets.
