Image: CointelegraphFairshake, a crypto-backed political action committee, announced support for 32 House incumbents running in the 2026 US midterm elections. All 32 candidates voted to advance the 2025 Digital Asset Market Clarity Act, which remains stalled in the Senate. The PAC will spend an initial $6 million on six candidates, with $1 million allocated to each, split evenly between Republican and Democratic incumbents. It plans to spend more than $100 million total on 2026 House and Senate races, including at least $30 million to oppose Ohio Senate candidate Sherrod Brown.
