June 10, 2025 Press Release Washington, D.C. – Today, the Digital Asset Market Clarity (CLARITY) Act passed the House Agriculture Committee by a vote of 47-6 to establish a clear regulatory framework for digital assets in the United States. U.S. Representative Dusty Johnson (R-S.D.), Chairman of the Agriculture subcommittee on digital assets, introduced this legislation in May along with Committee on Agriculture Chairman G.T. Thompson (R-PA), Majority Whip Tom Emmer (R-MN), Committee on Financial Services Chairman French Hill (R-AR), and Financial Services subcommittee on digital assets Chairman Bryan Steil (R-WI). “Over the next few years, blockchain technology will transform most every industry,” said Johnson . “Unfortunately, regulatory uncertainty has pushed innovation and investment overseas.
