TREE NEWS update: President Trump has endorsed Republicans’ “last, best and final offer” on the Clarity Act, which strengthens ethics rules and concedes ground on DeFi and stablecoin sticking points. It remains unclear whether enough Democrats will cross over to pass the bill in Tuesday’s vote.
Trump Backs Tougher Ethics Rules in Clarity Act as GOP Makes Final Offer
The concession on DeFi and stablecoins suggests Republicans are trading substantive ground for the procedural votes needed to move the bill, which matters more for what it signals about the negotiation than for the ethics provisions themselves. The binding constraint is now Democratic crossover, not the White House's position, and Trump's endorsement removes the last excuse for Republican holdouts. Whether enough Democrats treat the ethics tightening as sufficient cover to defy their leadership is the open question going into Tuesday's vote.
