Top crypto group to pour millions into bipartisan slate of House races after key legislation stalls
Crypto group funds House races after key legislation stalls.
Context
What happened: Fairshake, a top crypto industry group, announced a bipartisan slate of 32 House candidates it will support, including 19 Republicans and 13 Democrats, after key crypto legislation stalled in the Senate.
Key numbers: Six members get $1 million each. Fairshake and affiliates reported about $120 million cash on hand at end of August.
Why it matters: The group is emphasizing bipartisanship as the industry looks to the next Congress to revive stalled legislation. Sen. Ruben Gallego said targeting Brown makes negotiations harder and the deal worse.
