Negotiations over the Clear Act have reached an impasse, with Republicans accusing Democrats of making no concessions.
According to The Block, Katie Wobadden, spokesperson for Senator Cynthia Lummis, stated that the Democrats' amended counterproposal for the latest version of the Clarity Act is identical to their pre-recess position, leading Republicans to reject it. Wobadden noted that Republicans have already made significant concessions on multiple fronts, including agreeing to nearly the entire Tillis-Gallego ethics framework, while Democrats "have not budged," and called on them to engage in substantive negotiations.
