Stand With Crypto Endorses Congressional Candidates Ahead of Midterm Elections
Stand With Crypto, a Coinbase-backed advocacy group, has announced its endorsements for several US congressional candidates ahead of the 2026 midterm elections.
The organization plans to support multiple candidates in various states, including Ohio, Iowa, and New Hampshire, with a focus on promoting 'clear, common-sense regulations' for the digital-asset industry.
This move comes as control of the House and Senate could shift after the 2026 election cycle, which may impact the progress of stalled crypto legislation, such as the Digital Asset Market Clarity (CLARITY) Act.
The CLARITY Act recently failed to advance in the Republican-controlled Senate, despite passing the House with bipartisan support. Stand With Crypto warned that lawmakers who opposed the bill could face consequences, underscoring the tight link between legislative outcomes and campaign strategy.
