Crypto PAC Fairshake Spends $29 Million in September Election Push
Crypto PAC Fairshake spent $20 million of its September total on two affiliated PACs: Defend American Jobs PAC, which got $15 million and Protect Progress, which was handed $5 million.
The Defend American Jobs PAC centres its efforts on cryptocurrency and blockchain policy, with most of its funding going toward backing Republican candidates. Protect Progress, by contrast, has funded only Democratic candidates so far. These grants may reflect Fairshake‘s broad strategy of affecting both sides of the aisle.
The rest of $8.8 million was spent on a variety of closely contested House races, especially in hotly contested states such as New York, Nevada and California. Among the major beneficiaries were Southern California Republicans David G. Valadao, who received $1.3 million, and Michael Garcia, who got $1 million.
Among other recipients were Democratic Representatives Patrick Ryan of New York with $1.9 million, Steven Horsford from Nevada with $1.7 million, and Angela Dawn Craig of Minnesota with nearly $1 million.
Crypto Industry Donations Top $190 Million Ahead of 2024 Election
In September, Fairshake gave $6.2 million to Democratic candidates, while $2.3 million went to Republicans. Protect Progress contributed over $10 million to Senate candidates in Arizona and Michigan.
Crypto industry political donations have surpassed $190 million for the 2024 election cycle. Public Citizen estimated in an August report that close to half of all corporate political donations this cycle came from crypto companies.
