Stand With Crypto Endorses Congressional Candidates Ahead of Midterms

Crypto Advocacy Group Stand With Crypto has released its list of endorsed US Congress candidates ahead of the midterms. The organization, launched by Coinbase in 2023 to push for 'clear, common-sense regulations', aims to support candidates across key Senate and House races that could shape how lawmakers handle digital-asset legislation.

Stand With Crypto plans to back Senate candidates running in 2026, including Ohio Republican Jon Husted and Iowa Republican Ashley Hinson. The group is also endorsing House candidates, naming Mariannette Miller-Meeks (Iowa) and Shomari Figures (Alabama), among others.

The endorsements come amid ongoing uncertainty around whether Democrats can regain control of either chamber of Congress in 2027. A shift in majority control could alter which bills move forward and how aggressively leaders prioritize crypto-focused regulation.
