Claim 3: “The U.S. Senate voted 49-50 against advancing the CLARITY Act on September 15”
DISPUTED
While multiple sources confirm the Senate voted 49-50 (or 50-49) to block the Clarity Act, there is a contradiction regarding the date. The claim states September 15, but one source explicitly states the Senate voted on 'Tuesday'. Without a specific date attached to the 'Tuesday' or 'September 15' across all sources, the timing is not fully aligned, though the vote count is corroborated.
