Sheriffs group drops opposition to CLARITY Act

3 min read

The Major County Sheriffs of America moved from opposition to a neutral position on the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act after discussions with the administration clarified section 604, the Blockchain Regulatory Certainty Act provision that would state developers and infrastructure providers who cannot control user funds are not federal money transmitters. The group did not endorse the bill but asked Congress to give state and local law enforcement a formal role in the Treasury study and advisory bodies. The shift removes a notable obstacle for Senate support, though other law enforcement and prosecutor groups continue to oppose section 604.

MCSA withdrew opposition after clarification on section 604.
