CLARITY Act: follow H.R. 3633 through official records

Follow the bill number and Congress

This tracker follows H.R. 3633 in the 119th Congress, titled the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act of 2025. A popular name can appear in discussions of drafts, amendments, or later bills. The bill number, Congress, and text version identify what you are actually reading.

The live status comes from GovInfo’s official BILLSTATUS record, with links to Congress.gov for the complete action list and text versions. The page shows the source update time separately from the date of the latest recorded action.

Procedure is not the same as passage

A committee action, motion to proceed, cloture vote, and final-passage vote are different events. A Senate floor action by itself does not establish Senate passage. The tracker identifies the furthest stage supported by the official action codes and displays the latest action text.

Enactment is a further step beyond passage in one chamber. Before describing an adopted rule as current law, check that the official record establishes the required legislative result and inspect the enacted text rather than an earlier draft.

Read the version that matches the claim

Open Congress.gov’s text tab and compare the relevant versions. For a claim about market structure, identify the definitions, covered activities, regulator responsibilities, registration provisions, and any exclusions in the actual text.

A news summary can be useful for orientation, but a proposed section is not automatically the final provision. Save the version and section number behind a claim so that later amendments can be compared accurately.

Avoid turning a bill into an XRP price promise

Legal classification, exchange access, and market price are separate questions. A market-structure proposal does not by itself establish that a particular token’s price will rise, that every trading venue can list it, or that an existing dispute has been resolved.

For a practical account decision, read your provider’s current restrictions and the rules actually in force. For a market scenario, keep the assumed legislative outcome separate from the observed bill status.

An old action date is not necessarily a broken feed

A successful fetch can return an old latest action because no newer action has been recorded. If the fetch fails and a previously retrieved record is available, the tracker labels it stale and preserves its original check time. On a cold failure it shows unavailable status, not a guessed milestone.

The 119th Congress ends on January 3, 2027 at noon Eastern time. A bill not enacted by the end of that Congress does not automatically continue in the next one. A new bill would need its own identity and tracker.

A repeatable verification workflow

Start with the latest action, then check what that action legally or procedurally establishes. Open the vote or related document when necessary. Read the current text before applying a claim to a specific asset or business.

• Confirm H.R. 3633 and the 119th Congress.
• Record the action date and source update date.
• Distinguish a motion, a committee vote, final passage and enactment.
• Link the precise text version behind a substantive claim.
• Recheck the official record when using a saved screenshot.
