The Fairshake political action committee, a major campaign-finance arm of the crypto industry, has secured significant victories in the 2026 U.S. congressional primaries. Jessica Steinmann, a former Department of Justice lawyer backed by President Donald Trump, won the Republican primary for Texas' 8th District with nearly 70% of the vote, supported by over $750,000 from Fairshake. Her campaign emphasized support for digital assets and blockchain technology.
Fairshake also targeted veteran Texas Democrat Al Green, a vocal crypto opponent, spending $1.5 million in ads against him. Green now faces a runoff against pro-blockchain candidate Christian Menefee. Additionally, Fairshake-backed candidates Chris Gober and Trever Nehls won their respective Republican primaries in Texas, while Representative French Hill and Tim Moore secured victories in Arkansas and North Carolina, respectively. Fairshake's influence continues to grow, with $193 million on-hand at the start of the campaign season.
