WASHINGTON, D.C. (July 11, 2025) – Today, Blockchain Association, the Crypto Council for Innovation, and The Digital Chamber – the three leading trade associations representing the U.S. digital asset industry – join together to call on Members of the U.S. House of Representatives to pass the Digital Asset Market Clarity (CLARITY) Act.
In a joint letter addressed to Speaker Mike Johnson and Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, the coalition urged swift passage of this bipartisan legislation to establish a comprehensive regulatory framework for digital assets and ensure continued American leadership in blockchain innovation.
“The CLARITY Act represents meaningful progress toward the regulatory certainty needed for our industry to foster innovation and for blockchain technology to thrive in the U.S.,” the letter reads. “Advancing this bipartisan market structure legislation sends a strong message that the U.S. is committed as the global leader in digital assets.”
The coalition emphasized that this legislation is the result of years of industry engagement and bipartisan collaboration in Congress. It offers long-overdue clarity that will allow the U.S. to harness the benefits of digital asset technology while protecting consumers and supporting responsible innovation.
“This moment is the result of years of tireless advocacy, collaboration, and education,” said Blockchain Association CEO Summer Mersinger. “The CLARITY Act reflects the serious commitment from lawmakers to get digital asset regulation right. It provides the essential guardrails our industry needs to continue building responsibly here in the U.S.”
The joint letter commends the leadership of Chairman French Hill and Chairman Glenn ‘GT’ Thompson, as well as the contributions of Ranking Member Angie Craig and Representatives Don Davis, Ritchie Torres, and Josh Gottheimer, who have worked diligently across party lines to advance the legislation through committee.
“The CLARITY Act is a pivotal step forward in ensuring the U.S. continues to lead in the global digital economy,” said Ji Hun Kim, President and Acting CEO of the Crypto Council for Innovation. “We commend Congress for working across the aisle to address the complexities of digital asset markets and create a comprehensive framework that supports both innovation and investor protection.”
As the legislation moves toward a House floor vote, the coalition is also encouraging the Senate to build on this progress and work with industry stakeholders to craft and pass complementary legislation.
“By passing the CLARITY Act, Congress moves one step closer to ending the regulatory uncertainty that has stifled American leadership in this space,” said Cody Carbone, CEO of The Digital Chamber. “This legislative effort affirms the U.S. commitment to responsible innovation and signals to entrepreneurs, developers, and investors that America is open for blockchain business.”
This joint effort underscores the shared priorities of the digital asset industry and marks a significant milestone in the push for thoughtful, bipartisan regulation that fosters U.S. innovation, consumer protection, and global competitiveness.
