The revised CLARITY Act has received support from both the National Fraternal Order of Police (FOP) and the National Cryptocurrency Association (NCA), with each organization endorsing the legislation for different reasons.

The bill, formally titled the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act, is part of a broader congressional effort to establish a division of regulatory authority between the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) over digital assets, an area where jurisdictional ambiguity has persisted for years.

The FOP said changes in the latest version of the bill resolved its concerns about law enforcement authority. The NCA, meanwhile, argued that the measure would strengthen consumer protections and give the digital asset industry clearer rules.

Police group says revised bill protects enforcement powers

In a letter dated July 24, the National Fraternal Order of Police, which represents more than 382,000 law enforcement officers, urged Senate Banking Committee Chairman Tim Scott and Ranking Member Elizabeth Warren to support the revised CLARITY Act.

The organization said it had reviewed changes to provisions related to the Blockchain Regulatory Certainty Act (BRCA) and was satisfied that the revised language would not restrict the ability of law enforcement agencies and prosecutors to investigate crimes involving digital assets.

The FOP also pointed to provisions addressing anti-money laundering and sanctions compliance, digital asset kiosks, seizure and tracing authorities, temporary transaction holds requested by law enforcement, and new grant and training programs designed to strengthen digital asset investigations.

According to the letter, the revised legislation would also create a digital asset cyber innovation center. It further clarifies that protections for certain software developers do not apply to people who intentionally facilitate criminal activity.

The FOP said the latest amendments had satisfactorily addressed its earlier concerns and expressed support for passage of the bill.

NCA cites consumer protections and regulatory clarity

Separately, the National Cryptocurrency Association published testimony submitted to a House Financial Services subcommittee hearing, arguing that the CLARITY Act would provide stronger consumer protections while reducing regulatory uncertainty.

The organization cited its own research stating that more than 67 million Americans own cryptocurrency. It also said 73% of respondents support stronger consumer protections, while 77% favor comprehensive legislation for digital assets.

The NCA said the bill would require clearer disclosures from crypto platforms, introduce fraud warnings for crypto kiosks, preserve self-custody rights, and maintain existing consumer protection authority for the Federal Trade Commission and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.

The association also argued that clearer regulatory rules would allow innovation to continue while giving consumers greater confidence when using digital assets.

Revised bill draws backing from different constituencies

The endorsements add to public support for the revised CLARITY Act from groups with different priorities. The FOP emphasized investigative tools, anti-money laundering measures, sanctions compliance, and coordination with law enforcement. The NCA focused on consumer protection, innovation, self-custody, and regulatory clarity.

The dual backing illustrates how the market structure legislation has drawn support from constituencies that do not typically align on financial regulation, reflecting the range of issues the bill addresses across enforcement, consumer protection, and industry oversight.

The House is expected to consider the revised market structure bill as lawmakers continue work on a comprehensive regulatory framework for digital assets in the United States.
