Crypto Super PAC Fairshake Backs 32 House Candidates for Midterms

The cryptocurrency super political action committee Fairshake has announced its support for 32 candidates running for the U.S. House of Representatives in the upcoming 2026 midterm elections. CoinDesk and Cointelegraph reported that the PAC plans to back incumbents who voted in favor of the CLARITY market structure bill in 2025. Cointelegraph, CNBC, and The Hill also confirmed the committee is targeting 32 House races. [1][2][5][6]

CoinDesk, Cointelegraph, and Pluang reported that Fairshake will initially allocate $6 million among six key House candidates, split equally with $1 million going to three members from each major political party. CoinDesk noted that the committee is backing a broader list of more than 30 incumbent lawmakers in total. [1][2][8]

Fairshake is supported by major industry figures including Coinbase, Ripple Labs, and Andreessen Horowitz. According to Cointelegraph, the group's campaign push aims to preserve pro-crypto policy in Congress as the CLARITY market structure legislation remains stalled in the Senate. [2][11]

The U.S. House of Representatives serves as the lower chamber of Congress and shares legislative power with the Senate to pass federal laws. Fairshake's targeted financial backing represents an ongoing effort by digital asset firms to influence the composition of Congress ahead of major legislative decisions. [2][9]
