The group said more than 28,000 Americans signed the petition this week, asking lawmakers to mark up the CLARITY Act. The delivery turns the group\u2019s regulatory message into a voter-focused demand from <span>crypto<\/span> owners seeking federal action.<\/p>\n<p>The campaign centers on the Senate Banking Committee, where supporters want the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act (CLARITY Act) scheduled for markup. Stand With <span>Crypto<\/span>\u2019s message is clear: <span>crypto<\/span> owners want lawmakers to act, and they are presenting themselves as organized voters. On social media platform X, the group wrote:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cToday, we hand-delivered a message to Washington. Over 28,000 Americans signed our petition this week, asking the Senate one thing: mark up the CLARITY Act. We\u2019re watching. We\u2019re organized. And we\u2019re voting.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Mason Lynaugh, Executive Director of Stand With <span>Crypto<\/span>, said it was an honor to bring the community\u2019s voice to Washington. He added that Stand With <span>Crypto<\/span> is working to empower <span>crypto<\/span> owners nationwide. The group later said the petition was delivered so signers could be heard, while urging lawmakers to deliver for Americans relying on them.<\/p>\n<h2>Senate Banking Committee Faces <span>Crypto<\/span> Regulation Pressure<\/h2>\n<p>Stand With <span>Crypto<\/span> began as the Stand With <span>Crypto<\/span> Alliance, launched on Aug. 14, 2023, with Coinbase (Nasdaq: COIN) introducing it as an advocacy organization. Its petition asks Senate Banking Committee members to schedule a markup and advance a clear framework for digital assets. The group argues that delays leave <span>crypto<\/span> users, developers, and companies operating in gray areas. It says the CLARITY Act would protect consumers from fraud and abuse, support broader technology adoption, and strengthen national security. The petition also ties the bill to U.S. leadership in digital asset technology. Its core case is that developers need certainty, consumers need confidence, and everyday <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bitcoin.com\/get-started\/a-quick-introduction-to-crypto\/\" class=\"lar_link lar_link_outgoing\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">crypto<\/a> owners benefit from more options and competition.<\/p>\n<p>The CLARITY Act remains central to the group\u2019s legislative push after earlier progress in Congress. The bill passed the House with bipartisan support in 2025, while related market structure legislation moved through the Senate Agriculture Committee in January 2026. The Senate Banking Committee remains the key focus because supporters view markup as the next needed step. The wider debate includes <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bitcoin.com\/get-started\/what-are-stablecoins\/\" class=\"lar_link lar_link_outgoing\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">stablecoin<\/a> rewards, ethics language for government officials, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bitcoin.com\/get-started\/what-is-defi-decentralized-finance\/\" class=\"lar_link lar_link_outgoing\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">decentralized finance<\/a> provisions, and oversight lines between the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC).
