What was said

"despite the influence of Trump and the Trump administration, the CLARITY Act could not get the 60 votes to make it through, uh, the Senate, and so that, that bill died."

Peter Schiff says the CLARITY Act did not secure the 60 votes needed to advance in the US Senate and argues this suggests crypto-industry political influence is waning. He adds that, in his view, crypto-facing politics could become tougher if Democrats regain control of parts of Congress.
