Woofun AI reports that the Senate will hold a procedural vote on September 15 at 2:15 p.m. Eastern Time to end debate on the Clarity Act concerning the digital asset market. This represents the first full Senate vote on the legislation since it passed the House of Representatives in July 2025 with 294 votes in favor and 134 against. The measure, designated H.R. 3633, requires 60 votes to proceed. With Republicans holding 53 Senate seats, seven additional votes are necessary for passage, a deficit that widens with any absences or objections. A successful procedural vote triggers a 30-hour consideration period before a final Senate vote, which also demands 60 votes to end debate. Any amendments require House re-approval.
