Fairshake backs 32 House candidates in 2026 midterms

Fairshake, the crypto industry's major political spending network, said it will support 32 House candidates in the 2026 U.S. midterm elections. The group is backing 19 Republicans and 13 Democrats who have supported its policy goals. The network said it is committing at least $6 million across six races, while its affiliated super PACs entered September with about $120.4 million in cash, according to Federal Election Commission filings. Fairshake's backers include Coinbase, Ripple and Andreessen Horowitz. The spending push comes after the Senate failed to advance the CLARITY Act, a key crypto marketstructure bill. The result leaves the industry's main regulatory priorities unresolved and could make the next Congress important for future crypto rules in the United States.
