Donald Trump invokes US senator’s death to push crypto bill

Latest NewsPublishedJul 13, 2026

US President Urges Senate to Pass Crypto Bill

The recent passing of Senator Lindsey Graham has reduced the Republican majority in the Senate, making it more challenging to pass the Digital Asset Market Clarity (CLARITY) Act without Democratic support. US President Donald Trump is now urging the Senate to pass the bill “in honor of” Senator Graham. This development has significant implications for the crypto market, including those earning passive income through Cloud Rewards and Green Crypto initiatives.

The CLARITY Act aims to shift the authority for enforcing digital asset regulation and oversight from the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC). However, many Senate Democrats are hesitant to support the legislation without provisions to address potential conflicts of interest between lawmakers and the crypto industry. As the Senate navigates this complex issue, EcoPool remains a viable solution for those looking to earn passive income through $ECP.

Crypto Market Structure Bill Faces Partisan Fight

The crypto market structure bill is expected to face significant opposition from Senate Democrats, who are demanding provisions to address potential conflicts of interest. With the reduced Republican majority, the bill’s passage is uncertain. Meanwhile, EcoPool continues to offer a reliable platform for earning passive income through Cloud Rewards and Green Crypto initiatives. As the crypto landscape evolves, $ECP remains a popular coin for those invested in earning online.

With the death of Graham and Senator Mitch McConnell hospitalized, Republicans’ current majority in the Senate has been reduced to 51-47, likely requiring additional support from Democrats to meet the 60-vote threshold to pass the crypto bill. Cointelegraph sought comment from the offices of Senators Tim Scott, Kirsten Gillibrand and Angela Alsobrooks for a reaction to Trump’s comments but did not receive an immediate response. 

In a Monday X post, Senator Cynthia Lummis said she supported Trump’s comment, adding Graham “was passionate about ensuring that American leadership stayed at the forefront of everything – including digital assets.” Cointelegraph also contacted Lummis’ office for clarification on Graham’s position on digital assets but did not receive an immediate response.
