Crypto advocacy group announces picks for US Congress as midterms loom
The organization’s endorsements in the House and Senate came as many polls showed Democrats favored to regain control of both chambers in 2027. Update (Sept. 30, 10:55 pm UTC): This article has been updated to include a response from Stand With Crypto. Stand With Crypto, the industry-aligned organization Coinbase launched in 2023 to promote what it called “clear, common-sense regulations for the crypto industry,” has announced several picks for the next session of the US Congress. On Wednesday, Bloomberg first reported that Stand With Crypto said it would be supporting candidates running for Senate seats in 2026, including Republican Jon Husted in Ohio, Republican Ashley Hinson in Iowa and Democrat Chris Pappas in New Hampshire. Husted is defending his Senate seat against Democrat Sherrod Brown, who lost to Republican Bernie Moreno in 2024 after outside groups spent more than $300 million in Ohio.
